BLOOD WELLNESS:
Blood is a combination of plasma and cells that circulate through the entire body. It is a specialized bodily fluid that supplies essential substances around the body, such as sugars, oxygen, and hormones. It also removes waste from the cells
in the body & skin. Hematologists work to identify and prevent blood and bone marrow diseases, as well as studying and treating the immune system, blood clotting, and the veins and arteries.
Fast facts on blood
Blood has a number of functions that are central to survival, including:- supplying oxygen to cells and tissues, providing essential nutrients to cells, such as amino acids, fatty acids, and glucose, removing waste materials, such as carbon
dioxide, urea, and lactic acid protecting the body from infection and foreign bodies through the white blood cells, transporting hormones from one part of the body to another, transmitting messages, and completing important processes, regulating
acidity (pH) levels and body temperature, engorging parts of the body when needed, for example, a penile erection as a response to sexual arousal. Another important function of the blood is its protective action against disease. White blood
cells defend the body against infections, foreign materials, and abnormal cells. The platelets in blood enable the clotting, or coagulation, of blood, when bleeding occurs, the platelets group together to create a clot. The clot becomes a scab
and stops the bleeding, as well as helping to protect the wound from infection.
You must make sure that your blood is purified at all times. Your blood carries oxygen to trillions of cells in the human body. It also carries hormones, fats and nutrients from the food that you eat to every single cell in the body, which then
put the ‘waste products’ from the cells back into the blood that carries it to the de-toxfication organs, and finally out of our system. Blood also regulates pH, water and temperature levels in our body. Besides, the white blood cells (WBCs) in
the blood protect the body against many diseases.
