Scientists have confirmed that Americans do, in fact, shit gold.

Researchers led by United States Geological Survey research geologist Kathleen Smith, Ph.D, have plumbed the depths of America's sewer systems to analyze just what is in all that sewage.

The result? High levels of precious metals such as gold are washed down the United States' toilets, showers, sinks and drainpipes every year.

The science: In a press release posted on the American Chemical Society website, Smith said that "There are metals everywhere ... in your hair care products, detergents, even nanoparticles that are put in socks to prevent bad odors."
