Did you read that picking your nose can lead to getting Alzheimer's?

[Daniela1982]

Your nose is a good conduit to getting to your brain. If you pick your nose it can introduce pathogens that can take that conduit and infect your brain, causing inflammation. And it is inflammation that can lead to Alzheimer's. Now I know why I have been forgetful lately. It's all that scratching my skull that has been going on for years. I'll have to stop playing "pick and flick" of my boogers into the net I have on my wastebasket.

No. However, in some cases, it CAN help build a low-level immunity in some people via whatever is "ingested through inhaling".

DAMN. Well crap. What am I going to do for snacks now?

I imagine it could be true. What about brown nosers at work? They must be screwed.
