The other day I heard a friend talking about how "the moon's gravity affects our internal organs." This sounds like bull, but is it? And if so, how would I correct their misinformation?

I think the reason some people might believe this claim is because we're taught in school that the moon's gravity causes the tides. I think the reasoning goes, "well if the moon's gravity can affect the tides, surely it can affect smaller things too"
