Our Amazing Human Body: The Skin

 There is an organ in our bodies that I´ve always found interesting for the simple fact that we don´t sweat in the water... yeah, that simple nothing makes me admire our skin.

  The largest organ of us, the one that protect us from everything, at first instance I mean, at the point where doesn´t let pass everything to inside our body. And also helps us to regulate the temperature of our bodies. For example, when we are doing some exercise our temperature starts to increase, and increases and increases, but there´s a point where we can´t let the temperature to raise more, so our skin starts the sweating process, which consists in the process where we begin to exhale water (sweat) from our pores, and the thermal capacity of the water makes the temperature of the body go down, and so we can keep the heat at standard levels and stay on our exercise without problems.

 

   

  The human skin has a large of close to 2 meters, and it´s from 0.5 mm wide in our eyelids to 4 mm wide in our heels. I don´t know if you know it, but the skin is located in our whole body, externally, it is like our last natural coat, but it has 3 according to how deep they are, their names are: Epidermis, Dermis, and Hipodermis, from the one that is most external to most internal one. 

                 

  There are some illness that can actually attack our skin, sad but true, there are lots actually, one example can be the cancer, which can be in our skin, and from there on on it can possible kill us, but we can manage to escape from it by taking good care of our skin, avoiding the most dangerous time of  UV rays from the sun, or use sun bloc lotions. Another illness is called seborrheic dermatitis which is a very common one that consists in inflammation and the formation of yellow and white scales in the fat areas of the skin, like our scalp, face or inside the ears. This last illness can be cured with normal shampoo and some very normal drugs, that you can easily get in a drugstore.

  There´s very easy to have a good skin, you just have to use sun bloc and avoid the most dangerous UV rays, which is present at a couple of hours everyday, you can also have to take care of some parts that are weaker than others, or maybe they are just at wrong places, like our feet, they can be easily infected by micro-organisms that can enter by some cuts, or even infect the foot by itself, so you have to use some foot powder and keep your feet as most clean as possible. Those recommendations helps you a little bit, now, if you want to have a very wealth and shiny skin you should have some another products, like skin lotions and drink 2L of water everyday, and... I don´t know... I´m not a dermatologist.
