Scientists say the higher your I.Q. the more you dream
.
The largest cell in the human body is the female egg and the
smallest is the male sperm (which explains ALOT).
You use 200 muscles to take one step.
The average woman is 5 inches shorter than the
average man.
Your big toes have two bones each while the rest
have three.
A pair of human feet contain 250,000 sweat glands.( No wonder they sweat)
A full bladder is roughly the size of a softball. (Not mine about like a baseball)
The acid in your stomach is strong enough to
dissolve razor blades.
The human brain cell can hold 5 times as much
information as the Encyclopedia Britannica.
It takes the food seven seconds to get from your
mouth to your stomach.
The average human dream lasts 2-3 seconds.(Then why does it seem like it takes all night and if you have been fighting or running n the dream you are all worn out when ya wake up?)
Men without hair on their chests are more likely
to get cirrhosis of the liver than men with hair. ( And here I thought it was if they drank to much)
At the moment of conception, you spent about
half an hour as a single cell.
There is about one trillion bacteria on each of
your feet.
Your body gives off enough heat in 30 minutes to
bring half a gallon
of water to a boil (wonder how hot it is if
you're in menopause???)
The enamel in your teeth is the hardest
substance in your body.
Your teeth start developing (in your gums) 6
months before you are born.
When you are looking at someone you love, your
pupils dilate, they do the same when
you are looking at someone you hate.
Blondes have more hair than dark-haired people. HAd more fun when I dyed hair Auburn lol)
Your thumb is the same length of your nose.
At this very moment I know full well you are
putting this last fact to the test...now
remove your thumb from your nose
and pass this on to the friends you
think might be interested in
comparing their thumbs to their noses as well.
Never go to a doctor whose office plants have died.

Hi...thanks for sharing this with us. I love information like this...and so does David. I told him to log on and read it because he loves to collect tidbits like this.
When I read this it is a great reminder of how amazing our bodies actually are. Unfortunately, sometimes we only stop to consider that when they are NOT working. Reading this is a great thing...because we are truly amazing creations.
Good to be back in touch..and I am enjoying your discussions. Take care...looking forward to chatting..
