@@doggydo6289 yes, it's called power cycle usage optimization. If you spend more energy on moving your body in a fast and energy consuming way, your energy processing optimizes and your battery life gets expanded. Not only will you charge last longer per day, you'll also get more days in total.

I just gotta say, Scishow, thank y’all for being around and producing such consistently great material all these years. My childhood curiosity has been nurtured by info-shows on the internet like this and I really can’t thank all of you guys enough for it. DFTBA
As someone with a chronic illness I'm well aware of how much most people take their body for granted until something goes wrong. And once things go wrong it can be impossible to fix it, and you may need to adapt what works (eg. Change types of food, length of sleep) to something different than what may work in a 'normal' body.
Back in the 60's when I worked in surgery, drs. were allowed to remove what we called "green appendixes" , those that weren't infected. If a doctor went over the allotment he was said to be 'knife happy". If on the other hand a doctor didn't reach his allotment he was said to be too "conservative".
Yes, finally, a guide. I need this because I spent a couple millennium being a tree in my previous life and I don't have a clue on how to operate this new vessel. BTW, do you have a guide on how to attract mate? I'm having difficulties...
Of all the beverages , why hard kombucha ? Yeah I bet that Michael ( He looks pretty healthy ) isn't much of a soda or sugary beverage drinker ,but hard kombucha ?

I love how when these videos are made that are of this variety they literally aren't making any new stuff; all they're doing is a brief pre-explanation and a lot of editing. But because these videos are so old they're using we're still learning just as much as we would in any other video
Thanks. Nice to see these pulled together. Lots of good information. I really appreciate the description that correlation is not causation and oversleeping might be a symptom of the specific correlated poor health, same with undersleeping. I note that the normal fine tuning of body temperatures is done with the shift of blood flow and not the sweating and shivering, both of which occur later, if the body temperature continues to move out of range. The body set point is changed in some infection changes, as is called fever. I really liked the Allometry discussion.
At the end of a long day (like 10+ hours) theres nothing i love more than popping on a SciShow video and relaxing while learning. Thank you to everyone who makes these videos possible!

My appendix was removed when I was 19. I'm 65 now and have had C. Diff 4 times, one nearly killed me. I started taking probiotics 5 years ago and haven't had problems since then.
Actually entries in that user manual: - Heart attacks are not actually repored. Instead pain in the left arm, chest, neck, back or jaw may all be the result of having one. As well as any of the legitimate issues with those body parts! - 2 of the 3 nevers for your hand are well protected, running along the inside of the arm where they are pretty impossible to be hurt. The Ulnar nerve however runs another way - right across the back of the elbow, to maximize the amount of damage it can take! - your immune system may violently overreact and suffocate you, in response to totally harmless substances (allergies) - fever is also a immune response. It can go so high that it kills you by denaturating your proteins Some people claim the human body is the result of "Intelligent Design". I would not know who is dumber: People that believe in intelligent the design, or the supposed "intelligent" designer that produced something that buggy!

sweet guide Scishow put together for us. i'm so happy my suspicion/hypothesis is supposedly correct: that certain cravings are your body telling you which nutrients it needs.
I was going to bookmark this under temperature then came all the other information, now I'm just putting in under Awesome, Really Important Stuff, Best of the Best, General Medicine, Favorites and, of course, SciShow. As someone who has a body that these days insists on a completely illogical and weird sleep schedule, (bed at 6 am, up at either 10am of 6 pm, 8-12 hours on the computer, maybe some chores or more hours on the computer for the 10 am days and then a "nap" till 7pm, and occasionally a straight 24 hours up or up to the same sleeping), it is nice and reassuring to know that if I can tame this cycle it may help with my diabetes, blood pressure, atrocious diet and chronic depression. A ray of hope from the SciShow wizards! Oh god, I'm having a sudden craving for ice cream - help!
The segment on Allometry was really interesting to me. I have an adult cat and recently add a pair of kittens to our family. I am use to the adult cats daily intake and exit amounts. The kittens?!!? I wasn't prepared for the sheer level of intake! They eat 2 to 3 times the amount of food the adult cat does and at least 3 times the litter box contributions! 4 meals a day and they make grunting noises when they eat. Plate clean. I'm happy they are healthy. I was just shocked at, what I now know was, the allometry of it.
As for sleep, it IS a symptom of my depression; my sleep patterns are terrible and erratic at the best of times. I also have a high-risk job whose stresses limit my sleep during my work week; my shifts are not always steady so I have different shifts at different times most days. It is no small wonder I go into crash mode on my first day off. I also do this one day a month because of PMS. It's not healthy and I know it, but having a job during a pandemic, high-risk for Covid or not, helps ensure a roof over my head. My depression is something usually known only to my most immediate family members and my doctor.
That bit about certain foods being tied to good memories and causing cravings is something I've experienced. One of the best periods in my life was my first year in college, and I used to hang out in the library at my university and eat pasta fagioli soup while studying and reading books. I found myself craving the soup years later cos I missed that feeling of sitting in the library and reading.
It's a nice fact to know 37°C can resist fungal infection. I learned in medicine class that temperature beyond 37° will denature proteins (and thus decreasing some body function) and temperature lower than 37° can disturb your brain (36° still not tho)
This training is MANDATORY for all new recruits who have been assigned a human body! If you are not able to operate your human body, you have 30 days to request a replacement from the quartermaster before your mothership returns to the singularity.
I love this weird, brilliant, intricate and also clumsy little organism that my mind tries to coexist with without messing with it too much... Kinda gross, kinda awesome^^
Another hypothesis that I have about why 37 degrees is the magic number, is related to the fact that the specific heat of water has a local minimum at this temperature. If evolution's purpose was to minimize the energy requirement by our body to correct for small fluctuations in temperature (thermoregulation), it would choose to stay close to this temperature.
Special request here: can you please make a video on proteins and amino-acids? I would love to learn the difference between all of them, how they are assimilated and their benefits to the human body. Thank you!
Re: dosing of medicines for "adults" vs. "children" - it's a metabolic point too, but worth noting that there are grown adults who weigh 100 lbs and are under 5ft tall, and 14 year olds who are 6' and 180lbs.
The appendix one is really interesting. I had mine removed. Several years later I had food poisoning that hospitalized me and between that and the antibiotics by gut bacteria was destroyed...and I didn't recover for a long, long time. I still have trouble digesting milk.
I just realized we are WARM creatures. 37 degrees, damn! Also, the fact we get sick when it drops explains why we’re so damn good at generating heat. Or why stuff like Wim Hof’s stuff is possible. We’re not supposed to drop dead when it’s freezing a little, so we got a great furnace inside of us!
I don't mind celery, and I started eating it daily for over a month now. Now I have legitimate celery cravings. Sometimes I crave celery instead of feeling thirsty because my body knows I get a lot of my daily water that way. Now I have an insane celery addiction and sometimes eat 2lbs of it a day. How the body and mind can be strange!
Speaking as someone who's had various sleep disturbances throughout his life, the segment on sleep really interested me. For about two and a half years in my early twenties, I'd usually get about four to five hours of sleep a night until my body would just crash and I'd get a full eight and then the process of deprivation would repeat. I'd routinely walk thirty two miles some days back then just to exhaust myself because I was that desperate for a good night's sleep. I tried to get into a sleep study back then, but for some odd reason they said that I did not qualify. I still don't know what the hell was wrong with me.
You wouldn’t need this “manual” if you listen to your body more. “Listening” to your body is different from just “hearing or feeling” its language. Also if you do know your body well enough, you’d see that there are things that don’t apply to you in this manual. It is because our bodies are not the same and this manual covers only a percentage of the human population. Anyway, it’s still a good video. It sheds light to a good number of things only science can explain to us. (@-@)b

My depression is something usually known only to my most immediate family members and my doctor.
Whoa. I knew I was going to enjoy this one! Literally doubled my knowledge of basic human bodily functionings lol
Respect the human body and be thankful for the functions of the human body that we take for granted. Good research
That bit about certain foods being tied to good memories and causing cravings is something I've experienced. One of the best periods in my life was my first year in college, and I used to hang out in the library at my university and eat pasta fagioli soup while studying and reading books. I found myself craving the soup years later cos I missed that feeling of sitting in the library and reading.
Thanks for posting this It was really helpful it's been so long since I've Possessed I a mortal vessel I really needed a refresher course
Man, Y'all saved me from suffocating. Thanks.
Great compilation.
Btw I never noticed that Olivia talked faster in earlier videos. I thought she always had that chill delivery.
It's a nice fact to know 37°C can resist fungal infection. I learned in medicine class that temperature beyond 37° will denature proteins (and thus decreasing some body function) and temperature lower than 37° can disturb your brain (36° still not tho)
I loved this video, Michael is awesome too!!
This training is MANDATORY for all new recruits who have been assigned a human body! If you are not able to operate your human body, you have 30 days to request a replacement from the quartermaster before your mothership returns to the singularity.
How do I make this request.
Yeah my appendix ruptured when I was 5 and nearly killed me, they didnt really want to hang around to see if I really needed it back then.
I love this weird, brilliant, intricate and also clumsy little organism that my mind tries to coexist with without messing with it too much...
Kinda gross, kinda awesome^^
SciShow: Sleep is very important, and reduces the risks of diseases.
Schools: *I'm gonna pretend I didn't see that.*
Another hypothesis that I have about why 37 degrees is the magic number, is related to the fact that the specific heat of water has a local minimum at this temperature. If evolution's purpose was to minimize the energy requirement by our body to correct for small fluctuations in temperature (thermoregulation), it would choose to stay close to this temperature.
Love the longer videos!
As soon as I heard from the UK to Cameron, I teared up. ♥️♥️♥️
Thanks for the video. I recently aquired a human body but didn't know how to use it.
Special request here: can you please make a video on proteins and amino-acids? I would love to learn the difference between all of them, how they are assimilated and their benefits to the human body. Thank you!
That last section about dosing has me SHOOK.
Re: dosing of medicines for "adults" vs. "children" - it's a metabolic point too, but worth noting that there are grown adults who weigh 100 lbs and are under 5ft tall, and 14 year olds who are 6' and 180lbs.
Now I know the basics on how to operate the meat mech. Thanks fellow human organism.
The appendix one is really interesting. I had mine removed. Several years later I had food poisoning that hospitalized me and between that and the antibiotics by gut bacteria was destroyed...and I didn't recover for a long, long time. I still have trouble digesting milk.
Due to food scarcity as a child I have an extremely hard time recognizing hunger and cravings, as well as sating them when I do.
Right off the bat, great title
I just realized we are WARM creatures. 37 degrees, damn!
Also, the fact we get sick when it drops explains why we’re so damn good at generating heat. Or why stuff like Wim Hof’s stuff is possible. We’re not supposed to drop dead when it’s freezing a little, so we got a great furnace inside of us!
But the "opioid typhoon" is not strictly psychological. It's mainly physiological.
Me being 6years an insomniac with almost no sleep for weeks turning into rock who sleeps 12h+ seems legit
I absolutely love Olivia's input
DUDE LOVE THE HAIR!!!!
Thank you
After forty years, it's about time!
I don't mind celery, and I started eating it daily for over a month now. Now I have legitimate celery cravings. Sometimes I crave celery instead of feeling thirsty because my body knows I get a lot of my daily water that way. Now I have an insane celery addiction and sometimes eat 2lbs of it a day. How the body and mind can be strange!
great tips and tricks wow
I wish I got this manual back at the birth clinic
Sci show: user guide
Me: Nah, I will just see how this thing works by doing random stuffs I like on it
Don't Do That; [RKT] And [ROC] Are Currently In Intensive Repair Storage Due To Doing That.
Where the he'll was this when I was born!?! I looked everywhere for it!
Speaking as someone who's had various sleep disturbances throughout his life, the segment on sleep really interested me.
For about two and a half years in my early twenties, I'd usually get about four to five hours of sleep a night until my body would just crash and I'd get a full eight and then the process of deprivation would repeat.
I'd routinely walk thirty two miles some days back then just to exhaust myself because I was that desperate for a good night's sleep.
I tried to get into a sleep study back then, but for some odd reason they said that I did not qualify.
I still don't know what the hell was wrong with me.
You wouldn’t need this “manual” if you listen to your body more. “Listening” to your body is different from just “hearing or feeling” its language. Also if you do know your body well enough, you’d see that there are things that don’t apply to you in this manual. It is because our bodies are not the same and this manual covers only a percentage of the human population. Anyway, it’s still a good video. It sheds light to a good number of things only science can explain to us. (@-@)b
