SPIFF: 10: Every atom of our body is said to be billions of years old and our body is 70 percent water.

9: By the age of 18, the human brains stop growing. It even begins to lose more than 1,000 brain cells after such age. Your brain comprises only 2 percent of your body weight but uses up to 20 percent of your body’s energy. Your brain never takes a break even when you are sleeping; the brain is busy working to replenish the brain processes needed to function normally while awake.

8: An average human produces 10,000 gallons of saliva in a lifetime.

7: It is impossible to sneeze without blinking your eyes. The highest recorded speed of a human sneeze is 165 kilometer per hour.

6: The human body sheds about 40 pounds of skin in a lifetime. Our skin produces antibacterial chemicals to keep germs at a bay. It also produces antimicrobial peptides that protect the body from infection.

5: You can’t swallow and breathe at the same time; however babies can do this but until they are about nine months.

4: Yawning helps you cool your brain. It is an involuntary behavior. When you yawn, the influx of cool air may ventilate your sinuses and facilitate brain cooling.

3: Your heart is said to beat nearly 3 billion times if you live an average life span of seventy years.

2: Your lungs need a lot of breathing room. The total surface area of the lungs is approximately equal to the size of a tennis court.

1: Each person has a unique tongue print just like the fingerprints.

Afam4eva: Whenever i'm swallowing eba, i feel like i'm going to suffocate myself. is there an explanation for that? I think my lungs or wherever the eba passes is too narrow. I think Jonathan should ban eba and yam. They're dangerous to humans. Especially yam. What kind of food requires life support(water) before it can be eaten.

reincarnation involves the mind, the spiritual soul and not the flesh. Atoms are what constitute the flesh not the soul. Your soul enters a new body wen reincarnated.

it cant be created. but god created it. and also in chemistry energy can neither be created nor destroyed... but what happens to the energy in humans after death? is it not destroyed? or the energy still lives on
kunletech: God created the first man from dust, in accord to holy book.
According to atom theory: it can't be created, neither destroy.
It means, the first atoms that the body of adam contained were being transfered or passed from generation to generation, which is still continue.
Just my thought.
