It’s important to know
basic facts about the human body for health reasons, because ignorance can be
costly. Jumia Travel, the leading online travel agency, shares 5 basic facts
you should know about the human body.
Stomach
acid can dissolve metal
Yes, your stomach acid is
in fact that acidic. The only reason the acid in your stomach doesn’t eat right
through your body is because your stomach cells are renewed faster than they
are destroyed.
Weight
affects ability to conceive
Being malnourished can
negatively affect ovulation, because a minimum of 22 percent body fat is
necessary for ovulation and reproductive competence. On the other hand, being
overweight can also alter hormone chemistry and negatively affect ovulation.
Not only does weight affect fertility, it also affects pregnancy. Thankfully,
weight-related fertility issues can easily be remedied by shedding or gaining
the required weight. So, if you are of an ideal or reasonable weight (a BMI
between 19 and 25), you shouldn’t be going on crash diet or unnecessarily
trying to lose weight.
Men
also have a biological clock
Age can affect a man’s
ability to conceive, it might not be as profound an effect like with women, but
it’s an effect to consider nonetheless. Recently, researchers at Bristol and
Brunel universities evaluated 8,500 couples to determine the impact of age on
the length of time it takes to conceive. They discovered that while only 8
percent of the men failed to impregnate their partner after a year of trying,
the number grew to 15 percent after age 35. Considering factors like the fact
that a man’s sexual drive drops with age causing the frequency of sexual
intercourse to drop, the study suggests that paternal age can also affect a
couple’s ability to conceive.
After
eating too much, your hearing is less sharp
Surprising right? Another
reason why you should avoid eating too much.
Birth
control choices have fertility implications
The method of
contraception a woman has used can affect her fertility and impact conception.
Therefore, it’s important for a woman to consult her doctor on the best birth
control choices for her body. She should, in other words, carefully consider
birth control choices before she decides she wants to get pregnant.
