You know when you drive down a country lane and the manure stinks, the oldies in my car always say take a breath of that, its good for you? Is this true cause why's isn't dog poo good for you or walking into the bathroom after someone else?!
I need this clarifying, do i hold my nose or take the biggest breath possible.

I think they mean "good for you" in the sense of making a man out of you or building character or something. Manure scent is not harmful but it won't do anything good for you either. Older people may associate it with health because you are out in the country with "fresh" air (meaning less pollution, not fresh-smelling) and hard farm labor. Both of those are good things but if you stay in the car, you really aren't getting any exercise or getting away from the car exhaust.

If you area driving down a country lane the chances are the air is fresh, even if it does pong of poo. So yes, it's good for you! Breathing in general is good for you I believe.

I think the oldies are just talking about good country air. Not smelling poo. . .literally.

I dont think its good or bad for you.
I quite like the smell as it reminds me of when I was a child, maybe thats whats happening with the old timers?
