Does the color of your earwax reveal the "true state" of your health, with white earwax indicating a vitamin deficiency and black earwax suggesting a fungal infection? No, that's not true: Earwax can come in a range of colors from dark to light, but it doesn't reliably show if you're healthy or have problems like infections. If it changes a lot in color, texture or smell, it could mean an issue, but typically it's not enough to diagnose anything.
Do vaccinations cause liver flukes in the human stomach? No, that's not true: Vaccine experts contacted by Lead Stories called the notion "science fiction" and "nonsense." Liver flukes are parasites you can get from eating contaminated food like raw fish or certain plants. Vaccines are safe, tested treatments that protect you from diseases and have nothing to do with parasites.
