It seems that we know our own body thoroughly. Of course, because it is given to us from birth. However, even experienced doctors still understand the most complex processes by which the body ensures its uninterrupted functionality. In addition, you yourself do not want to know some of the features of your body. We have warned!
Cancer cells
Every hour, every day, your body picks up and produces cancer cells. This does not lead to the development of tumors simply because the immune system destroys them. Reduced immunity means a simultaneous increase in the risk of getting cancer. Take care of yourself, do not get sick.
Death by a blow to the heart
Our body is very strong. A person can survive even a fall from a great height. But one unsuccessful blow can kill - if it is delivered correctly. As a rule, young people involved in sports are subject to this fate. There is a very high risk of getting a similar injury.

Stomach acid
If there were no special cells in the stomach that are constantly busy rebuilding its walls, you would simply digest yourself. Yes, our body is an unprincipled cannibal.
Blood
All fluid in your body is, to some extent, blood. Tears, sweat, mother's milk - everything contains blood cells. Feel like a vampire!
Eyes
In fact, the body does not perceive the eyeballs as its integral part. Therefore, they are limited by a special autoimmune barrier. If it were not for him, the white blood cells quickly dealt with the eyes.
Demodex folliculorum
Perhaps one of the most unpleasant facts. Come to terms with a real nightmare: microscopic mites Demodex folliculorum live in your eyelashes, which feed on dead skin cells.
Telomerase
In fact, this enzyme is the very essence of eternal life. It makes cells immortal, but it stops working almost immediately after birth. Cancer cells are able to activate it a second time - that is why it becomes so difficult to defeat a terrible disease.
Slime
It's unpleasant. Every single day, our body produces up to two liters of mucus. Where does it all go? You just swallow it. Enjoy your meal!
Microorganisms
There are more bacteria and microorganisms on your body than there are people on Earth. Actually, it is these little creatures that are the real kings of nature.
Melanoma
It can start as a small spot on the skin. Mole, just think. Or a freckle? Melanoma is one of the deadliest cancers. It is almost impossible to detect it at an early stage.
