Gallbladder

21st in the year 2015. My grandfather had gone into surgery for what was suppose to be the removal of his gallbladder. However, when he came out of surgery, that is when the life of my family and mine changed. It was just suppose to be a simple surgery. The surgeon would look through the scope, locate the gallbladder and the remove it. That wasn’t the case. My grandfather’s gallbladder hadn’t been removed. Instead what the surgeon found was a tumor, a cancerous tumor. In fact, it turned out

The digestive system helps the humans break down food and turn it into nutrients. The digestive system is made up of a lot of different organs such as salivary glands, pharynx, mouth, esophagus, stomach, liver, gallbladder, small intestine, large intestine, and pancreas. Salivary glands produce saliva, which keeps the mouth and other parts of the digestive system moist. The pharynx role in the digestive system is to connect the nose and mouth to the esophagus. The mouth is used for putting in food

fighting off each disease from the common cold to cancer! 12. Radishes are particularly helpful for liver and gallbladder functions. They control manufacture and flow of bile and bilirubin, acids, and enzymes. Also, it also eliminates extra bilirubin from the blood, and it contains enzymes like myrosinase, diastase, amylase and esterase. Regular ingesting of radishes defends your liver and gallbladder from contagions and ulcers. 13. Apart from the benefits outlined overhead, radishes work as a good appetizer

Coronary Heart Disease Coronary Heart Disease also known as CHD is a problem which happens inside your coronary arteries. This substance (called plaque or plank) had a waxy feel and can block or shorten the amount of blood that travels to your heart muscles. This can cause heart failure or angina (discomfort or pain on your chest). High Blood Pressure High blood pressure is where the blood pushes against your arteries walls while the heart pumps blood and overtime if you are overweight you have a

pancreas, stomach, gallbladder, colon, rectum, and anus. The digestive system converts food into a form that is used as an organism. The organs of the digestive system are separated into two groups: “the alimentary canal, or gastrointestinal (GI) tract, and the accessory digestive organs” (Human Anatomy and Physiology, 2012). The GI tract consists of “the mouth, pharynx, esophagus, stomach, and small and large intestines. The accessory structure includes the salivary glands, gallbladder, liver, and pancreas”

enzymes with the chyme to prepare the nutrients absorption in the small intestine. The food does not stay in the pancreas, liver, or gallbladder but simply passes by it. These digestive organs aid in the chemical digestion of chyme as it passes into the small intestine. After staying in the stomach four a few hours and passing by the pancreas, liver and gallbladder, it will go to the small intestine (Primal Pictures). Once the food is in the small intestine, it will take three to five hours from

tract are the mouth, pharynx esophagus, stomach, small intestine and large intestine, but there are also a few accessory organs. The organs that aid in digestive help are the liver, gallbladder, and pancreas. The liver functions to produce bile, which helps to break down lipids in the small intestine, but the gallbladder is the organ to actually store and secrete the bile into the duodenum of the small intestine. The pancreas has two functions in the body, endocrine and exocrine. The pancreas’s endocrine
