Your Body

“Inside your body is a wonderful pharmacy.  You name it, the human body can make it…tranquilizers, sleeping pills, anti-cancer drugs; the right dose at the right time for the right organ with no side effects.  And all the instructions you need come with the packaging which is your innate intelligence.”  -  Deepak Chopra 

THE AMAZING MACHINE

In one hour, your heart works hard enough to produce the equivalent energy to raise almost 1 ton of weight 1 yard off the ground.

Each square inch of human skin consists of twenty feet of blood vessels.

Nerve impulses to and from the brain travel as fast as 170 miles per hour.

Your stomach has to produce a new layer of mucus every two weeks otherwise it will digest itself.

The average human’s heart will beat 3,000 million times in their lifetime. The average human will pump 48 million gallons of blood in their lifetime.

One human brain generates more electrical impulses in a single day than all of the world’s telephones put together.

It takes the interaction of 72 different muscles to produce human speech.

The average surface of the human intestine is 656 square feet (200 m).

The human body is comprised of 80% water.

There are 45 miles (72 km) of nerves in the skin of a human being.

During a 24-hour period, the average human will breathe 23,040 times

Human blood travels 60,000 miles (96,540 km) per day on its journey through the body

The amazing machine able to perform these functions daily without you having to think about it one time is the HUMAN BODY.  If your nervous system is clear of interruption, these functions are able to perform optimally.  Those interferences are termed vertebral subluxations – it diminishes the body’s ability to use innate intelligence to function at the highest level.  Chiropractors are the only professionals trained to remove the devastating subluxations, thus allowing the body to increase its function.
