Quote by: Kite  How about you go and try to clean out your air filter with some soap and water, maybe you'll save money on car parts. Filters aren't designed to be cleaned out. They are designed to absorb as much crap as they can to separate the good stuff from the bad stuff. Your spleen, liver and kidneys are also filters in your body.
Your spleen can easily get infected, but that is not an essential part of the body and can be removed if need be. The other two, not so much. If you drink an enormous amount of liquor, your liver will become damaged. Theres no amount of green veggies in the world that will make your liver function again, and you will need a transplant or you will die. Similarly, if you drink some water with some nasty chemicals in it, your kidneys can get damaged, and you can get a transplant, or die. Transplants are essentially changing that old air filter.
Also, last I checked tonsils filter out all the bad shit that you breathe in, they're supposed to be the buffer between the lungs. The lungs are not the filter, they are the engine, and when you get a bunch of crap in your engine, it ceases to function correctly. The difference is that you can take the engine apart and clean it, the lung, not so much. |
I never recomended green veggies for cleaning the liver or anything other then the lungs. Nor did I ever suggest that drinking too much cannot cause liver damage, that fact is based on real science. Nor did I compare human lungs with a oil filter in a car. They are not the built the same. But you can clean the filters in your air conditioning system of your house or office.
Tonsils are basically useless and can be removed at an early age.
The problem is that the stream of pure scientific knowledge is being cluttered up by all the junk science and we need to filter out that mountain of useless information.
You do not need to take the body apart to clean the lungs, but hey? You might be onto a good idea there for future doctors. Meanwhile clean them with green tea and other healthy foods.
