55 Rampant Health Myths That Need to Die

Myth: If you’re logical, you’re left-brained; creative types are right-brained

‘There is no significant evidence to support the notion that certain people are left-brained and logical while others are right-brained and creative. The myth is based on early surgeries in seizure patients where, in an attempt to attribute different functions to different parts of the brain, it was found that visuospatial information was processed better in the right hemisphere while verbal information was processed better in the left hemisphere.

But brain scans of healthy people have found that both creative and logical activities cause widespread activation of neural networks on the left and right hemispheres of the brain.’ – Abhishiek Sharma, MD, a neurosurgeon practicing in Scottsdale, AZ
