Blood is a specialized body fluid. It has four main components: plasma, red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets. Blood has many different functions, including: transporting oxygen and nutrients to the lungs and tissues. Blood is needed for life. Blood is a fluid that flows throughout the body in blood vessels. Blood carries oxygen and nutrients to your organs and tissues and helps remove waste. Blood also helps you fight infections and heal from injuries. Red blood cells (RBCs) carry oxygen to the body. White blood cells (WBCs) are part of the body’s immune system. Platelets are cells that help with clotting. Plasma is the liquid portion of blood.
Where is blood made in the body?
Blood cells are made in the bone marrow. The bone marrow is the soft, spongy part inside bones. New blood cells are made daily. They help replace the cells that die naturally or through injury or illness.
Plasma is made up mostly of water. Plasma is also made up of different proteins, fatty substances, salt, nutrients, vitamins, and hormones.
Nourishment, Electrolytes, Hormones, Vitamins, Antibodies, Heat, Oxygen, Immune cells (cells that fight infection)
Blood carries the following away from the body tissues:
Waste matter
Carbon dioxide
There are four blood types: A, B, AB, or O
Example: So if you have type A blood, it’s either A positive or A negative.
Red cells, or erythrocytes, are relatively large microscopic cells without nuclei. The life span of an RBC is 4 months, and the body replaces them regularly.
White cells, or leukocytes, exist in variable numbers and types but make up a very small part of blood’s volume — normally only about 1% in healthy people. The normal range of the number of white blood cells in a microliter of blood is between 3,700 and 10,500.
Platelets, or thrombocytes, are cell fragments without nuclei that work with blood clotting chemicals at the site of wounds. There should be between 150,000 and 400,000 platelets per microliter of blood.
Plasma, is the relatively clear, yellow tinted water (92+%), sugar, fat, protein and salt solution which carries the red cells, white cells, and platelets.
The body already has a system to take care of the detox process and remove waste from the blood, namely the liver and the kidneys.
Liver
Liver. The liver is found in the upper right part of the abdomen. It helps convert food into energy. It also converts toxins, like alcohol, harmful (metals), and (medications), into (harmless substances) and ensures they are removed from the body.
Kidneys
Kidneys. The kidneys are two bean-shaped organs responsible for filtering the blood and removing waste.
Note: Your body’s natural detox process also involves your intestines, skin, spleen, and lymphatic system.
Foods
