Amazing Facts About Our Bodies Largest Organ: Our Skin

Image
  Our skin is the largest organ in our body and it plays many important roles in keeping us healthy. Here are some amazing facts about our skin: Our skin is made up of three layers: the epidermis, the dermis, and the subcutaneous tissue. Each layer has a different function, from protecting us from the environment to regulating our body temperature. The average adult human has about 22 square feet of skin, weighing about 8 pounds. Our skin is home to millions of bacteria and fungi, which play a role in keeping us healthy by protecting us from harmful microbes and helping us digest food. The color of our skin is determined by the amount of melanin, a pigment that protects our skin from UV radiation. People with darker skin have more melanin than those with lighter skin. Our skin is constantly renewing itself, with new skin cells replacing old ones every 28-30 days. Our skin is capable of healing itself from injuries such as cuts and burns, thanks to specialized cells called fibroblasts
