Very early on in my study I couldn’t wrap my head around why, during diastole (❤️ relaxation) there was any blood pressure at all - let alone ~80mmHg!!
Until I discovered the Windkessel Effect!
I have made this video for my students to understand!

🚨 What is Nociception? 💥
Simply put, it is the biological detection of noxious stimuli.
The sensory experience associated with nociception is pain 😣
But!! Pain is far more complex than nociception - they are not synonymous…

concepts.
I haven’t finished the ‘Understanding ECGs’ yet, but here is what I’ve made so far…
What would you like to see me make?
“Gary, how do you open up the vagus nerve?”
😂 🤣
Seriously though, I offer university level physiology content for free and this body hack BS gets 1.5 million views!!
I give up.

🚨 The utility of my 2 minute videos is to introduce a complex topic to a broad audience
🚨 I will inevitability miss information that specialists deem important - I’m sorry
Regarding human physiology, I am a jack of all trades, master of none🫀🫁🧠

It would be absolutely terrifying. The fact that women have to constantly assess every situation is heartbreaking. I have a 1 yr old girl, and to think that this is the world she is growing up in terrifies me.
Our kidneys will filter 120mls of blood every minute! 🩸
😮 This is 170 litres per day!!
But we don’t pee out 170L, we pee out ~1% of this 🤔 (1.7L)
This means our kidneys throw 99% of what it filters BACK INTO THE BODY!!
Let’s look at this process!!
