Your Body Does That?!
The Body Does That?!
Your body is doing things right now that would blow your mind—if you could see them.
It’s turning pizza into energy while quietly protecting you from invaders. It’s making you blush when you’re embarrassed, yawning when someone else does, and sometimes even turning your stomach red in the process. It’s filtering gallons of blood, growing new skin, regenerating parts of your liver, and running a 38-trillion-resident microbial city in your gut that talks to your brain.
From the moment you wake up until you fall asleep, your body is performing thousands of hidden, hilarious, and jaw-dropping feats. It has its own electrical timing system, a second brain in your belly, and built-in safety features so clever they sometimes feel like glitches. It can make you itch until you scratch, make your joints pop on command, and even keep you from acting out your wildest dreams while you sleep.
In this wildly entertaining book, you’ll discover the real reasons behind the weirdest things your body does:
Why your poop color actually matters
Why kids have more bones than adults
Why scratching an itch can make it worse
Why your stomach “turns red” when you blush
Why some people can smell asparagus in their pee and others can’t
Why your liver can rebuild itself
Why your brain sometimes lies to you about what you see
And why “morning wood” is perfectly normal (and has nothing to do with dreams)
Packed with surprising, verifiable facts and told with playful wonder, this is the ultimate celebration of the human body’s strange, sophisticated, and often hilarious design. You’ll never look at a burp, a blink, a blush, or a bowel movement the same way again.
Your body is doing that… and so much more.
