Dress it up a bit, such as Cambridge scientists have discovered a link between sugar intake and worms in vertebrates, please share and alert people and then see who shares it. Then make a note not to invite those to form a pub quiz team with you

My mother in law was convinced that her first baby was born covered in white "grease" (vernix and perfectly natural and common) because she ate fish and chips too often whilst carrying him!!

This is true on a base level go back 100 years or so when syphilis was very common and untreated. If you had the disease and played with yourself and then touched your eyes you could transfer the infection to your eyes this would make you go blind.
