Possible Shark Health Benefits!!!!???!!!!

I read something very interesting today. Turns out that there are many possible health benefits to many parts of a shark.
Research is showing that a shark's liver oil can be used in balms as a means of moisturizer and to prevent chapping. Scientists are also determining that it is possible that the liver oil may help heal canker sores.
Presently, in Europe, shark liver oil is being widely used in addition to traditional cancer treatments. It has been a debate as to whether or not certain parts of a shark can cure cancer and some countries are firm believers that a shark's liver oil is a definite component to defeating CANCER. Also interesting, research is showing that shark liver oil may also protect against as well as speed the healing of colds, the flu, and various minor skin infections!!!
Who knows, with more research, scientists may be able to help heal and slow down certain ailments and diseases that humans are infected with from time to time. The only way we will know though is by KEEPING SHARKS ALIVE!!!!!!!!!!

You have a better chance of getting stung by a bee or a wasp than getting attacked by a shark.


You have a better chance of getting attacked by a dog, a lion, a tiger, or a bear than getting attacked by a shark..


You have a better chance of getting in a car accident than getting attacked by a shark.

INTERESTING FACT: falling coconuts kill 150 people worldwide each year, which is 15 TIMES GREATER than fatalities attributed to shark attacks. Looks like we need to be more scared of falling coconuts rather than sharks :)
