Daily Dose Of Interesting Information

# 77. Believe it or not.

A full bladder is roughly the size of a soft ball.

Small wonder we have to run to bathroom when we feel

the call of the wild.

The average bladder holds about 400-800 cc of fluid.

But most people will feel the urge to go long before that

much accumulates i.e at 250 to 300 cc.

I shudder to think of my travel by a night bus from

Coimbatore to Pondy when my bladder must have

reached it full capacity over the 10 hours+ of travel.

It was literally at its burstig point! :scared:

# 78. Believe it or not.

Approximately 75% of human solid waste is made of water.

While we think that urine is the liquid part of human waste products,

what we consider solid waste is actually mostly water as well.

We must be should be thankful that most waste is fairly water-filled.

Drier and harder stools are what cause constipation and are painful to pass.
 
# 79. Believe it or not.

Our Feet have 500,000 sweat glands and can produce more than a pint of sweat a day.

With this kind of sweat-producing power it is small wonder that our gym shoes have a stench that can peel paint.

Additionally, men usually have much more active sweat glands than women.

Dear VR ji,

Good you brought up the topic of urine cos I wanted to write about the word urine but I was a bit hesitant cos of my infamous urine post that made many members swim out of forum in the flow!!LOL


Ok here goes..

You see in Sanskrit ;

1)Putra/Putri means Put(Hell) Trayate(Saves)..so a child is a person who saves ancestors from hell.

2)Gotra means Go(Cow) Trayate(Saves as in protect)..protects the cows

3)Mantra means Mananat(Mind) Trayate(Saves)..Mantra protects one's mind.


So I was wondering the word Mutra(Urine)..what are we protecting here??LOL
 
Sowbagyavathy Renuka, Greetings.

I don't know Sanskrit ( may be I should learn that instead of...ahm... appreciating beauties!). Would that me Ma trayate/ Would Ma means self? I don't know. But mutra saves 'self' or one's health. Most fluid related issues of the body are controlled by adjusting the kidney functions. When the kidney finction gets compromised, the difficulty seriously starts. If there is no dialysis possibility and if the urine flow is blocked, might as well inform the undertakers. Kidney function or the lack of it gives a very good indication about health. Even prostate inflammation, quite common amoung men in their later ages restricts urine flow. That is a very good indication.

So, urine saves the person.

Cheers!
 
Dear Renu,
The examples you have given say two things clearly...
Either the "tra" protects man/mind from some potential harm
or it protects other things from Man as in Gotra.
So now the possibilities have increased two fold!!
If you can give all the meanings of MU and MOO
may be we can figure out something after all!!

Ha Ha Ha..ever seen a dog shake off water after a bath?
We are not far behind our canine cousins.

You know after I came back from the medical conference I feel that we humans tend to get too worried for lots of things.
There was a lecture on Panic Attacks and those with Panic Attacks tend to worry about their next attack even though they might be cured and progress to the next level known as Agoraphobia( No No..it's not fear of Aghoras )

I was comparing this with dogs..have you guys seen Cesar Milan the Dog Whisperer training dogs with Panic Attacks?
Once a dog gets over his panic attack it never reverts to its previous state ever.
It's gone once and for all.

During the conference I wanted to stand up and bring up this point as why we humans can't be more like dogs so that we can overcome any anxiety but I didn't want to be the medical fraternity to growl at me!!LOL

But you see Dogs do not worry like us humans.We humans might have been cured but still come with regret,fear and worry and still dwell on the same level and never actually get 100% cured.

We should be like our canine cousins.The next time anyone calls me a dog or a bitch I am going to take it as a compliment!!LOL

Mu (मू) means to bind,fasten and to tie.

Trayate means to save.

So to save something from being fasten or bound and tied?

That means DO NOT tie it,bind it or fasten it as in "Let it Flow"???


Over to you VR Ji.
 
Makes perfect sense!!! :clap2:

"Let it flow freely!!!" :rolleyes:

Controlling this urge of urination is sure to lead to
many complication including stomach cramps!!

I shudder to think of the day when my bladder beceme
larger than a soft ball, as related earlier..

Another time, after my M.I.Law's demise,
I became fuller and fuller,and heavier and heavier
but just could not relieve myself however hard I tried!.

I thought I was going to literally burst!!! :boom:

I have enough sense to make some barley water
and drink it warm and lo and behold ...

kadaisiyil madai thiranthathu !!!

Later tests revealed severe urinary tract infection with a double digit pus cells!

Reason... sharing the western closet with random members of the family, the guests and the floating population!!!:flock:
