Every year people spend billions of dollars on medicine weather it's in a tablet form or a syrup form or in an injection form.
Medical science has made wonderful inventions that have served as a boon to the mankind.
Our body on the other hand reacts differently to each and every substance you put into it. That reaction generally depends upon one's ability to digest it and process it?
This is Now You Know and in today's video we will tell you that exactly happen to the medicine you just had and how does your body reacts to it.
When you sallow a medicine it slides down your throat, and reaches all over you blood vessels. But the whole process starts right in the digestive system.
Soon as the medicine reaches your stomach, the acid starts to break it in smaller molecules so that in can travel through the intestine and passes the intestinal wall and through it into the network of blood vessels.
The next steps involve the liver, the blood passes through the liver where the medicine molecules get absorbed by the liver enzymes.
Half an hour later most of the medicine is already running through all of your blood vessels and organs including brain, heart and kidneys.
The molecules than binds together to the affected area giving some relief in your pain and blocks the pain transmitting signals.
Once the pain is restore the body now acts to get rid of the molecules because if the medicine molecule accumulates then it can have some negative impacts.
The impact of the medicine on your body depends upon your age, diet, immune system and the dose of the medicine.
If the dose is low than it will not do its job and if the dose is heavy than it can be toxic.
