Encyclopedia of Science Trivia: Canned Food (Human Body)
 |
Description
Book Introduction
365 days, one page a day
If you read it with such enjoyment that you don't even realize how much time has passed,
You too can become a 'human body doctor' and an 'amateur scientist'!
If you examine the 365 items in this book one page a day, one by one, as if examining a tree, and then understand and connect them as a whole, as if looking at the forest, you will surprisingly come up with new 'scientific knowledge'.
You too can read this book in a 'canned' manner and become a 'human body doctor' and an 'amateur scientist'!
Question 1: “Why do I have trouble sleeping when I’m hungry?”
Answer 1: It is because of the substance ‘orexin’ secreted from the brain.
When you get hungry, your brain secretes orexin, which activates your body and keeps you awake.
When the brain's level of arousal increases due to orexin, concentration increases and the sympathetic nervous system is also stimulated, improving motor skills.
Question 2: “Why do I feel chill and shiver when I have a cold?”
Answer 2: When you catch a cold, your brain gives the command to 'raise your body temperature to fight viruses and bacteria!' and your body, upon receiving the command from the brain, raises its body temperature and strengthens its immune system to fight bacteria and viruses.
As our body temperature rises and the difference with the surrounding temperature increases, our body feels colder.
Knowledge in its entirety: The brain is the 'guardian of the human body'.
When you feel hungry, your brain secretes orexin, which helps you focus and improves your motor skills to relieve your hunger.
Additionally, when bacteria or viruses invade the human body, the brain sends a command to raise body temperature, strengthening the immune system to fight back.

Into the book
If I knew just three things, I could be a scientist!
The lips are much thinner than the skin on your face.
Facial skin and lips have different colors and thicknesses.
The skin covering the surface of the face (epidermis) is slightly thick and firm, whereas the epidermis of the lips is very thin, so the red color of the blood flowing just underneath is visible.
The lips are the part of the oral mucosa that protrudes outside!
Knowing what your lips are like can help you understand why they are much thinner than the skin on your face.
The true identity of the lips is the 'oral mucosa'! When you open your mouth wide, the pinkish, reddish part inside is the mucosa.
The mucous membrane that protrudes outside the mouth is the lips.
Only humans have red lips
If you think about it, mammals are the only creatures with lips.
Red lips are a unique characteristic of humans among mammals.
Red is eye-catching.
A smile with bright red lips makes you look healthy and happy.
Lips also play a role in conveying a person's condition and mood to the other person.
By the way, if your lips turn blue after having fun in the pool, it is because your body temperature has dropped.
--- p.32, from “Why are lips red?”
If I knew just three things, I could be a scientist!
Transports oxygen and nutrients to every corner of the body
For activities that involve a lot of body movement, such as running, nutrients and oxygen are essential.
When you run, your muscles move quickly, circulating blood quickly to every corner of your body.
The process of delivering oxygen and nutrients and exchanging them with carbon dioxide and gases produced after consuming nutrients continues without pause.
Self-regulation of heart movement
The heart is controlled by the autonomic nervous system (day 163).
So you don't have to worry about how to move your heart.
When we run, walk, and even sleep, our heart beats without rest.
The resting heart rate for one minute is 60-80 beats per minute for adults and 70-100 beats per minute for those aged 6-15, with children having a higher heart rate than adults.
Why does my heart race when I'm nervous?
When looking down from a dizzyingly high place, when speaking in front of a group of people, or when it's hot, your heart beats faster than usual.
This is due to the action of the sympathetic nerves.
When you're stressed, your sympathetic nervous system switches on and you feel your heart beating faster than usual.
--- p.40, from “Why does my heart beat faster when I run?”
If I knew just three things, I could be a scientist!
Energy intake and energy expenditure
A car cannot move without gasoline or electricity.
People also function with the energy (calories) they receive through food.
Energy taken in through food is called 'intake energy', and energy used through activities, etc. is called 'expenditure energy'.
Unused energy is the cause of obesity
Obesity arises from a problem of balance between ‘energy intake’ and ‘energy expenditure.’
If you consume too much energy, the energy remains in your body and you gain weight.
Conversely, if you 'consume a lot of energy', you will lose weight due to lack of energy.
Since the energy of water is 0, drinking water and gaining weight cannot be considered fat gain.
Energy is used even when you don't move
Some of the energy consumed is used for basic bodily functions such as breathing, moving internal organs, and maintaining body temperature.
This energy, which is used even when you are not moving or sleeping, is called 'basal metabolism'.
--- p.53, from “Why do people gain weight?”
If I knew just three things, I could be a scientist!
Neutral fat, the cause of obesity
There are four types of fat in our body: neutral fat, free fatty acids, phospholipids, and cholesterol.
Among these, neutral fat is the cause of obesity.
Neutral fat exists in the blood and serves as an energy source that helps the activities of internal organs and other organs.
Neutral fat that accumulates when left over
If you consume a lot of energy and expend it, the remaining energy becomes neutral fat.
Neutral fat passes through the blood vessels and is stored in fat cells as energy.
This accumulated state is body fat.
As fat cells steadily increase, the body appears plump and chubby.
One kilogram of body fat is 7,200 kilocalories.
If you exceed 400 calories per day, you will gain 1 kilogram after 18 days.
Neutral fat secreted when insufficient
Conversely, if energy consumption continues to increase, neutral fat in fat cells is released into the blood vessels and used as energy.
Then the fat cells will shrink and you will become slimmer.
--- p.56, from “What is neutral fat?”
If I knew just three things, I could be a scientist!
Shivering is a signal from the brain to raise body temperature.
When you catch a cold, you suddenly feel a chill.
When the brain orders your body temperature to rise to fight off viruses or bacteria, blood rushes to the heart, constricting the blood vessels in your limbs and causing you to feel chilled.
I had chills and my body was shaking at the same time.
When you feel cold, your body shivers, which is a physical response to raise your body temperature by releasing heat through trembling muscles.
If you have a low fever when you have a cold, it is okay to take a bath, but you should keep it short in lukewarm water to avoid exhaustion.
If you have chills, keep your body warm
Shivering is a response to the brain's command to quickly raise body temperature.
Chills are often followed by a high fever.
When you have chills, your body temperature does not reach the level your brain commands, so your fever does not go down.
In such cases, it is recommended to drink a warm beverage, put on some warm clothes, and rest.
--- p.66, from “Why do I feel chill and shiver when I catch a cold?”
If I knew just three things, I could be a scientist!
If more than one-fifth of the blood is lost, symptoms of shock appear.
The amount of blood flowing through the body is about 8 percent of an adult's body weight.
If you weigh 50 kilograms, that's about 4 liters.
If more than one-fifth of that blood volume suddenly disappears, shock can occur, and if one-third of the blood volume disappears, life can be at risk.
Bleeding may occur inside the body.
If bleeding occurs in the body, such as in the digestive tract, a large amount of blood may be lost.
If not treated quickly, respiratory failure may occur, causing difficulty breathing in the lungs and preventing the heart and kidneys from functioning properly.
Children are at risk even from minor bleeding!
Even if the amount of bleeding is the same, it is dangerous if it happens in a short period of time.
Children have a blood volume of about 1/19th of their body weight, so even a small amount of bleeding can cause shock.
It is known that women have a constitution that tolerates bleeding better than men.
During surgery, if the bleeding exceeds 500 milliliters, it is often supplemented with a blood transfusion.
Because the amount of blood varies depending on body weight, there is a weight limit when donating blood.
The lips are much thinner than the skin on your face.
Facial skin and lips have different colors and thicknesses.
The skin covering the surface of the face (epidermis) is slightly thick and firm, whereas the epidermis of the lips is very thin, so the red color of the blood flowing just underneath is visible.

Publisher's Review
To build scientific knowledge, go through it all, step by step!
If you want to break away from 'knowing and not knowing' and become 'knowing and knowing'
Learn 365 scientific facts in one page a day!
How can we effectively learn scientific knowledge? Learning it in a "canned" way is effective.
'Tong·Jo·Rim' refers to 'a method of acquiring scientific knowledge in a whole, step-by-step manner.'
In other words, rather than focusing on the details of a book full of useful scientific knowledge, it is a method of acquiring the book by first grasping the big picture and understanding the central content, as if looking at a forest.
Then, we examine the details 'point by point' as if examining each tree.
This is a method of acquiring knowledge that is close to the 'deductive method' of logic training.
The opposite is also possible.
In other words, it is a method of acquiring scientific knowledge in detail.
That is, first, you enter the forest, carefully examine each tree, 'piece by piece', understand the characteristics and differences of each tree, and then exit the forest to grasp (or gain insight into) the overall outline and characteristics of the forest.
This is a method of acquiring knowledge that is close to the 'inductive method' of logic training.
Let's take a concrete example from the contents of this book.
For example, it is like this.
Question 1.
“Why do we cough and sneeze?”
Answer each point 1.
When you have a cold, mucus and phlegm flow into your trachea and bronchi.
The inside of the trachea and bronchi are lined with tiny hairs called cilia.
When a foreign substance sticks to these cilia, a cough is produced to expel it from the airway.
It is a defense mechanism that prevents foreign substances from entering the lungs.
Question 2, point by point.
“Why do tonsils swell so easily?”
Answer each point 2.
The tonsils are one of the defense organs that prevent pathogens such as bacteria and viruses from entering the body.
Viruses and bacteria can easily attach and multiply in this area, causing swelling.
Knowledge in its entirety: Both the bronchi and the tonsils are important organs that protect the human body, like a gatekeeper guarding a castle or a goalkeeper protecting a goal.
At this point, shouldn't it become clearer why we need to learn scientific knowledge through 'canned food'?
When you become accustomed to and proficient in this way of acquiring scientific knowledge 'in its entirety-by-item' or 'by-item-by-item', learning science and accumulating knowledge becomes an exciting game rather than a difficult and painful process.
And gradually, we will move beyond the simple level of 'acquiring scientific knowledge' to the stage of 'utilizing and applying scientific knowledge.'
“A book that provides detailed, easy-to-follow explanations of the human body and diseases to the general public.
“A must-read for middle and high school students studying to enter medical or pharmacy school!”
― Lee Kyung-hoon (Clinical Assistant Professor, Soonchunhyang University Seoul Hospital)
The second book in the best-selling and steady-selling "Science Trivia Canned" series in the science field, "Science Trivia Canned Human Body," is a book compiled and published by the editorial department of Kizuna Publishing with the cooperation of 13 authoritative experts in the field, including Kahoru Ichihashi, medical doctors, and other medical professionals.
This book has been meticulously reviewed by Tomoyuki Harada, a medical doctor, chairman of the board of directors of Hikarikai Medical Corporation and director of Park Hospital, and Kyung-Hoon Lee, clinical assistant professor at Soonchunhyang University Seoul Hospital, to enhance the completeness of its contents.
In this book, the authors provide clear, scientifically proven answers to detailed topics that we have always wondered about but did not know the exact reasons and principles related to the human body, such as 'Why are lips red?', 'Why do people gain weight?', 'How is skin made?', 'Why is stool brown?', 'How much blood does it take to die?', 'Why does the ring finger bend when you bend your little finger?', 'Where is blood made?', 'Why do wrinkles appear as we age?', and 'Why do we get goosebumps?'.
This book has a format that clearly organizes '1 page per day, 365 days, 365 items', so that anyone can read it with ease and accumulate knowledge. In addition, since it clearly organizes all items into three categories with the subtitle 'If you know just three things, I can be a scientist!', even readers without much scientific knowledge can easily remember the content and organize it in their heads after reading it just once.
『Science Encyclopedia: Canned Human Body』 is content tailored to general adult readers who were not good at science in school but are curious about the surprising scientific principles by which the human body resists bacteria and viruses, maintains life, grows, ages, and finally dies.
Moreover, this book has a high degree of 'curriculum connection', so it is also suitable as a kind of supplementary textbook on human body and biology for young readers, and as the editor, Professor Lee Kyung-hoon, said, "This is a book that middle and high school students studying for medical or pharmacy school should not miss" and is a must-read.

At this point, shouldn't it become clearer why we need to learn scientific knowledge through 'canned food'?
When you become accustomed to and proficient in this way of acquiring scientific knowledge 'in its entirety-by-item' or 'by-item-by-item', learning science and accumulating knowledge becomes an exciting game rather than a difficult and painful process.
And gradually, we will move beyond the simple level of 'acquiring scientific knowledge' to the stage of 'utilizing and applying scientific knowledge.'
“A book that provides detailed, easy-to-follow explanations of the human body and diseases to the general public.
“A must-read for middle and high school students studying to enter medical or pharmacy school!”
― Lee Kyung-hoon (Clinical Assistant Professor, Soonchunhyang University Seoul Hospital)
The second book in the best-selling and steady-selling "Science Trivia Canned" series in the science field, "Science Trivia Canned Human Body," is a book compiled and published by the editorial department of Kizuna Publishing with the cooperation of 13 authoritative experts in the field, including Kahoru Ichihashi, medical doctors, and other medical professionals.
This book has been meticulously reviewed by Tomoyuki Harada, a medical doctor, chairman of the board of directors of Hikarikai Medical Corporation and director of Park Hospital, and Kyung-Hoon Lee, clinical assistant professor at Soonchunhyang University Seoul Hospital, to enhance the completeness of its contents.
In this book, the authors provide clear, scientifically proven answers to detailed topics that we have always wondered about but did not know the exact reasons and principles related to the human body, such as 'Why are lips red?', 'Why do people gain weight?', 'How is skin made?', 'Why is stool brown?', 'How much blood does it take to die?', 'Why does the ring finger bend when you bend your little finger?', 'Where is blood made?', 'Why do wrinkles appear as we age?', and 'Why do we get goosebumps?'.
This book has a format that clearly organizes '1 page per day, 365 days, 365 items', so that anyone can read it with ease and accumulate knowledge. In addition, since it clearly organizes all items into three categories with the subtitle 'If you know just three things, I can be a scientist!', even readers without much scientific knowledge can easily remember the content and organize it in their heads after reading it just once.
『Science Encyclopedia: Canned Human Body』 is content tailored to general adult readers who were not good at science in school but are curious about the surprising scientific principles by which the human body resists bacteria and viruses, maintains life, grows, ages, and finally dies.
Moreover, this book has a high degree of 'curriculum connection', so it is also suitable as a kind of supplementary textbook on human body and biology for young readers, and as the editor, Professor Lee Kyung-hoon, said, "This is a book that middle and high school students studying for medical or pharmacy school should not miss" and is a must-read.
