The human body is an amazing machine, and despite its apparent fragility, it is strong. Fortunately, our body parts can live without them, some of which are actually beneficial during childhood. This means that large parts of vital organs can be lost and survived, according to the writer Sara Romero, in the report published by the Spanish magazine "Moy Intersente".
Here are members that can live without them:
1- Kidney
We need one kidney to survive, and sometimes some are born with one kidney, or live with one after donating the other, because losing them will not lead to any serious health problems.
According to the National Kidney Foundation, people with one kidney have little or no health problems. Technically, we can live without kidneys but we need dialysis, as this organ works to purify the blood of toxins and control the proportion of water and salts in the body.
2 - Genital organs
For women, hysterectomy is sometimes performed as part of the treatment of cancer, uterine fibroids, chronic pelvic pain or other reasons. According to the National Institutes of Health, one in three women in the United States underwent the procedure at age 60. As for men, testicles can be removed during the treatment of testicular cancer without affecting life.
3 - bitterness
Gallbladder cyst contains bile juice produced by the liver, which slowly releases it into the digestive tract, but it may sometimes produce painful stones that cause problems due to cancer and infections. Fortunately, most people who had to undergo surgery to remove the gallbladder practice their lives normally.
4 - body hair
Head hair protects us and isolates heat, while eyebrows protect our eyes from sweat. For males, facial hair can play a role in sexual attraction. So, why do we need body hair? It's something we can live without.
5 - teeth of the mind
Besides being extremely painful when disposed of, the teeth of the mind are useless, cause our jaw to mingle and impede dental health, let alone live without it.
Coccyx
This organ is located at the end of the spine, and consists of three to five separate or molten vertebrae below the sacrum, the last part of the spine in the human body. A person can do without this organ without affecting his life.
7. Appendix
Appendicitis does not play any major role in digestion, and when inflammation should be surgically removed.
8 - male nipples
Why do men have nipples? This is because all human embryos develop nipples even before their sex is determined (male or female). A man's breast has no function, and he exists for a consistent cause of fetal development.
9 - tonsils
Technically, the tonsils are lymph nodes (important for the immune system). However, tonsils frequently become inflamed until removed. Tonsils often cause more problems than benefits, so we can live without them.
Spleen
The spleen filters the blood and helps the body fight infection, but it is not necessary for human survival, as this organ can be removed if damaged. But people without a spleen are more susceptible to infections.
11 - stomach
Sometimes, the entire stomach is removed as a treatment for stomach cancer, through a procedure called total gastrectomy. In this case, the small intestine is connected to the esophagus, and the people who underwent this intervention are fed a serum for a few weeks during their recovery. After this time, according to the National Health Service in England, people who have undergone the procedure can eat most types of food, but on smaller meals with supplements, if they have trouble absorbing vitamins.
12 - the colon
As with the stomach, this organ can be removed in the case of colon cancer patients, or to prevent it. A person is able to live without a colon, but an outside cyst should be used to collect stool, or surgery can be performed to create a waste bag in the small intestine to replace the colon.
The brain
The brain is a very important organ in the body, but we can live in half and enjoy a relatively normal life. As a result, we lose the eye and hand on the side of which half of the brain has been removed.
