10 AMAZING THINGS YOUR BODY DO TO KEEP
YOU ALIVE
1. The skin sheds about 30,000 to 50,000 skin
cell, every single minute of your life. This
mechanism is important in getting rid of dead
skin cells and harmful organisms on the surface
of the skin. Note that only the eyes does not
shed. Shed skin are quickly replaced
2. When a woman is pregnant, and an organ in
her body is damaged. The baby in the womb
sends stem cells to repair the damaged organ.
3. The normal human body temperature is 37
degrees Celsius. If the body is to go markedly
above or below this number, it will lead to death.
However the body does a lot of amazing things
that stabilizes the body temperature despite the
environmental temperature. Such as, shivering,
sweating, vasoconstriction and vasodilation.
4. The stomach produces acid secretions that
can excoriate the stomach lining. However your
body grows an entirely new stomach lining every
3-4 days.
5. Your mind forgets some information to protect
you from overload of information and emotional
distresses. This action helps you to think more
quickly and assimilate new information better.
6. The body has the ability to self heal. If you
are cut or injured, bleeding is immediately
stopped in minutes. Destroyed cells are
immediately regrown. This is very important
because, we would have all been dead if not for
this amazing mechanism.
7. In cases of extreme starvation, how does the
body react to keep us alive? It first all uses the
glucose and stored glycogen to keep the body
going. This lasts for about 6 hours, before it
turns to the fats and ketone bodies, before
moving on to proteins. This mechanism can help
you survive hunger for up to 70 days. However,
that depends on some factors like weight, and
amount of fat present.
8. When the body is faced with life threatening
situation, it secretes hormones like adrenaline
and cortisol. This reaction is known as acute
stress response. During this reaction, the
released hormones, speeds the heart rate, slows
digestion, and increases blood flow to major
muscle groups, and changes a lot of other
autonomic nervous functions, that gives you a
burst of energy and strength. This response is
essential in a flight or fight situation.
9. The body has the ability to recognize former
pathogens that has attacked the body previously
and destroy them. This is known as acquired
immunity.
10. The liver is extremely important in body, it
does a lot of metabolic and homeostatic
functions. The liver has the ability to regrow if
part of it is removed due to injury, disease, or
surgery. It can even grow to be just the right
size for the body it’s in, isn’t it amazing?.
tell me thank you for this information.
