Human Body – What is the Human Body Made Of?



You have most likely heard the old adage “sugar and spice and everything nice”. But that is obviously not true. So what exactly is the human body made of?

The human body is made of fat, water, protein, carbohydrates, vitamins and minerals. When you step on a scale, on average 60 percent of your body’s weight is water, 20 percent is body fat (slightly lower percentage for a man) and 20 percent is a combination of protein, carbohydrates, minerals, vitamins and other naturally produced biochemicals. A very easy way to remember this formula is to think of it as the “60-20-20″ rule. 60 percent water, 20 percent fat, 20 percent protein and other nutrients.

Based on the above body percentages, you can rationally expect that the average 140 pound person’s body weight would consist of about 84 pounds of water, 28 pounds of body fat and 28 pounds of protein, minerals, carbohydrates and vitamins. However these numbers are not a perfect formula and may vary from person to person. For instance, a older person would generally have less muscle and more fat than a younger person.

There are differences between men’s and women’s body compositions. More of a women’s body weight will come from fat and more of a man’s body weight will come from protein and calcium. For a man, protein crammed muscles and mineral crammed bones have denser tissue than fat. When you compare the weight of a man and women who are roughly the same size and height, the man is likely to weigh more each and every time.

Human Body Parasites



Sometimes the aches and the pains that a person experiences in his body can be attributed to parasites. And we aren’t talking about ten or twenty parasites inside a person’s body. There are more than 1,000 types of parasites that take residence in the body of one person and most of the time a million of these parasites can conquer the whole body.

parasites in the human body come in many types and these can be seen on many parts of the person’s body. Examples of these parasites are the worms, the bacteria, amoeba, fungi and mites. These parasites prey on the body of humans and other living things. Almost all parts of our body have hosted these parasites and most of the time we are not even aware that we carry these parasites. And these parasites are the reason why most people tend to experience a number of health issues. By practice, a person who has these health issues will tend to focus on the symptoms and forget about the roots of the problem. So the usual step is to focus on the chronic fatigue, skin rashes, muscle pains, a weakened immune system and a number of health issues.

These symptoms may be cured but chances are these symptoms will return since the root causes of these health issues still remain in our bodies and these are the parasites. As mentioned there are different types of nasty parasites and one nasty parasite that makes human unhealthy is the hookworm. This parasite attaches itself to the intestinal wall and then feeds on the tissues and blood and in the process causing the person to suffer from iron deficiency.

Another notorious parasites in the human body is the tapeworm. Tapeworms are huge parasites that can grow to more than 30 feet long and these parasites have the capability to produce a million eggs a day. Pinworms are also common intestinal parasites in the body. The eggs of these parasites are usually airborne. The moment these parasites are safely inside the human body, these parasites usually crawl outside the anus at night and in the process causes severe itching. These parasites then lay their eggs on the beddings or the sleepwear of the person.

But not all of the parasites in the human body are menacing and terrifying. Some of these parasites are just harmless and some are just less dangerous if compared to others. One example of a harmless parasite is the tooth amoeba. Tooth amoeba cannot be removed just by brushing. They usually crawl out again after you brush your teeth and they usually feed o the microscopic bits of food that are left in the teeth. Another parasite that is considered as less dangerous is the dust mite. Though dust mite can cause some allergies, these parasites can help maintain the human’s skin. These mites often feed on the dead skin in the person’s body. Some parasites cannot be totally avoided but with good personal hygiene these can be controlled and reduced in the body.
