    SPLEEN also plays a vital role in digestion. It helps in secretion of digestive juice. If u don't have SPLEEN, then ur whole digestive system is blocked.

    • @duanejohnson599
      @duanejohnson599 2 года назад +1

      i know this was 4 years ago but you are very wrong lol spleen has nothing to do with the digestive system. gall bladder and pancreas helps with secretion

    • @duanejohnson599

  • @sailorbychoice1
    @sailorbychoice1 Год назад

    A weird factoid I picked up along the way...
    It would seem that about 1/10th of people (across all racial lines) have a useless little bulbous ... thing... that is located under the spleen about the size of a halved ping pong ball. It does nothing, unless the person loses their spleen, then this little do nothing mushroom grows to between a quarter and a third of the size of the spleen and begins performing as a replacement spleen up to about 75% effective.
    We only really learned about this primarily from following up after military surgeons as splenectomies aren't exactly as common in the civilian sector.

      Hello I'd like to ask how you all feel about this new head and shoulders advert quoting "I'd give away my spleen to have hair like that". I for one am not happy about this as my Partner lives everyday with this "ilness" and does not appreciate people making jokes like that. I've asked head and shoulders to remove the advert and they havnt even replied. I'd like to know if anyone else is bothered by this or not?
