TODAY chief medical editor Nancy Snyderman says that "two of our greatest enemies in the battle against life-threatening disease are ignorance and the personal beliefs we bring into the doctor's office."In her new book, "Medical Myths That Can Kill You — And the 101 Truths That Will Save, Extend, and Improve Your Life," Snyderman helps readers separate fact from fiction when it comes to their medical concerns.
Here are the seven medical myths that can kill you:
Annual checkups are obsolete
Vaccinations are just for kids
Doctors don't play favorites
We're losing the war on cancer
Myth: Only old people get heart disease and stroke
Natural means 'safe'
You can just 'snap out' of mental illness
