It is discouraged, but as for the rest, that's the kind of misinformation and rumor that urban legends are made of... Kind of like getting breast cancer from wearing a bra, or antiperspirant giving you cancer because you can't "sweat out" waste..nevermind the millions of OTHER sweat glands still functioning...<sigh> |
