32 million bacteria on every square inch of the human body..... read more interesting facts about you!
Happy New Year Friends, I hope you have enjoyed the last few weeks with your families and are well rested and ready to kick off a new year of #2012. I was taking a few moments to read various health sites today and couldn’t help but share these interesting facts about each of us.
· This will really make your skin crawl: Every square inch of skin on the human body has about 32 million bacteria on it, but fortunately, the vast majority of them are harmless.
· Don't stick out your tongue if you want to hide your identity. Similar to fingerprints, everyone also has a unique tongue print!
· You may not want to swim in your spit, but if you saved it all up, you could. In a lifetime, the average person produces about 25,000 quarts of saliva -- enough to fill two swimming pools.
· If you say that you're dying to get a good night's sleep, you could mean that literally. You can go without eating for weeks without succumbing, but eleven days is tops for going without sleep. After eleven days, you'll be asleep -- forever!
