DR__Life on Us (Amazon Documentary) & Earth's greatest Eruptions Flashcards
When you are born and for your entire life you are 10% human and 90% microbes.
BIRTH CANAL: Bathes us in microbes. Mother’s breast milk blends our microbes with hers. Then microbes from birth canal becomes our immune system. These microbes also regulate our immune system. Our immune system is trigger happy and must be toned down and regulated.
Our immune system has an internal police force to keep it regulated. When this police force loses control, your immune system starts attacking the body.
It attacks the brain, it attacks joints and gives us arthritis. Or it’s attacking trival quantities of dandruff or pollen and gives you allergies.
Our microbes are the police force. The birth canal and breast milk microbes give us a jump start to grow our immune system and regulate it.
Armpits:
Armpits make food for our microbes. Armpits do not smell. The odor you smell is the food for your body’s microbes. Armpit is the Kitchen!
The glands in our armpits are normally located close to the anus in other animals. Animals smell these glands near the arm looking for a suitable mate. We humans, without knowing we are doing this, are attracted to mates subconciously by arm pit aroma! Scientists think our glands are in arm pits because we walk upright, therefore the glands moved higher on our body as we adopted the upright posture.
Belly button: Everyone has manifold microbes living in their belly button.
Institutions swab people’s belly button looking for new species. The BB may have hundreds of species or as little as six.
People with hundreds of species in BB are rarely sick. And people with very few species in BB are consistently getting sick and suffer more poor health.
“Bacteria are the most successful organisms on earth”.
A normal person will defecate 4 tons of “Poo” in their lifetime!
When we eat, we are also feeding our microbes! We are nourishing the bugs that make us sick. When we eat junk food, thoese bad bugs release toxins that trigger a violent response from our immune system and that causes inflammation. This leads to multiple sclerosis, Crohn’s disease, obesity and allergies!
_Earth’s Greatest Eruptions__DR_
“Siberian Traps” – Super volcano
Lava plume, looks like a mushroom. These plumes can be up to 1,500 miles wide! [Think St. Louis to Las Vegas] The plume breaks through a weak point in the mantle ergo an eruption can surface anywhere in that 1,500 mile plume on the surface of the Earth.
Trapped minerals in the lava are radioactive. Using the trapped radioactive half life, we can figure how long was the eruption and how far the lava flowed on Earth’s surface.
When the Siberian traps formed, the lava erupted and flowed for one million years [rounded]. This eruption happened 250 mya.
This million year eruption was the largest killer of life on Earth!
Icelandic volcanoes: Prime Documentary
Carbon Dioxide is a natural gas released around inactive volcanos. Many people have drowned swimming in Caldera lakes The Carbon dioxide gases them unconcious and they drown!
Many of iceland’s volcanos are under Glaciers, some with over 2,000 feet of ice covering up the volcano. It is common for a volcano to erupt and the locals don’t notice it. Only the scientists know about it.
Some of the major eruptions blast through the ice. It combines ice and lava shards thrown very high into the atmosphere. These shards are smaller than a grain of sand but are dangeous to jet engines.
These tiny shards of lava and ice will clog and destroy a Jet engine. Ergo, World air traffic is badly crippled with an iceland eruption. Tens of thousands of flights are cancelled. Perishable food rots. Tons and tons of it rotted with the last iceland major eruption. Millions of business meetings, sporting events, etc. all cancelled.
Eruptions melt Glaciers which floods the countryside with mud and water. Water floods to several hundred feet close by the volcano.
In 1994, an eruption caused a giant mudslide which buried over 1,000 people! For safety there are mudslide alarms coming down the mountains and mudslide safety spots where villiagers can gather to escape the mudslide.
