Podcasts about epiglottis

Flashing lights, electric impulses traveling at mind-boggling speeds, everything around is aglow — no, it's not a thunderstorm, it's you. You've just yawned, sending a powerful surge of energy through your body. Wanna know how humans breathe, how the lungs work, and how oxygen travels through the body? This is what we're talking about today! Well, first, the air enters the mouth and nostrils. One nostril, in fact, because the other is naturally resting. Are you eating something there? Just don't try to make another breath while swallowing that pizza — only babies are capable of that and inhaling at the same time. Okay, there's the pharynx, where air and food come together. It's a kinda sorting stage. Epiglottis makes sure that food goes where it belongs, to the esophagus. Next are the larynx, the trachea, and finally to the two bronchi, one going to each lung.

Denne gang er vi nået til spiserøret og mavesækken. Her venter sodavanden på grønt lys fra strubelåget. Eller epiglottis som det hedder på latin. Det, kan du se her på billedet. Vi venter på grønt lys, så du ikke får din sodavand i den gale hals... Og når der er grønt lys, bliver spiserøret (esophagus) nærmest til en slags vand-rutsjebane. Gennem den suser sodavanden direkte ned til syrebadet i mavesækken. Men for at komme ind i den, skal vi lige igennem en sphincter. Den passer nemlig på, at der ikke kommer mavesyre op i dit spiserør. Du kan også høre om hjernens brækcenter og om din mavesaft. Den er faktisk så sur, at hvis en tand lå der i et stykke tid, ja så ville den til sidst helt forsvinde. Hvilket skyldes mavesaftens ekstremt lave pH-værdi. Samt om fordøjelsesenzymer, oligosakkarider og om de specialiserede epithelceller der passer på indersiden af din mavesæk, så den ikke ødelægges af den hidsige mavesyre. Hvis du er nysgerrig, kan du på videnskabsår22.dk se YouTubes: fx Universet Direkte om bl.a. enzymer. Ligesom du kan læse artikler om Mars og sorte huller og meget mere.Podcasten er produceret sammen med videnskabsår22.dk og Niels Bohr Instituttet  på Københavns Universitet af socialøkonomiske Polykrom Media i samarbejde med  Anja C.

THE EPIGLOTTIS!  In this episode of Wrasslin' Raw, the boys get a truly underwhelming Pay Per View go-home show.  With the exception of Goldust and Savio Vega competing for the Intercontinental title, matches with the Godwinns and Make a Difference Fatu both fall flat.  Mankind has a good match, but why is Aldo Montoya still getting pyro? Why is Brett Hart strutting through Germany? There are a lot of questions in this episode, but hey, Ryan gets to highlight a fantastic Jobber of the Week!

The Immune System protects the body from foreign substances, cells, and tissues by producing what is referred to as an immune response. Listen in as Christine and Jimmy discuss this vital functionality of the human body and how to help it help YOU stay as healthy as possible! Welcome to The Nutritional Pearls Podcast! Focusing on topics that include digestion, adrenal fatigue, leaky gut, supplementation, electrolytes, stomach acid, and so much more, “The Nutritional Pearls Podcast” features Christine Moore, NTP and is hosted by Jimmy Moore, host of the longest running nutritional podcast on the Internet.  Sharing nuggets of wisdom from Christine's training as a Nutritional Therapy Practitioner and Jimmy's years of podcasting and authoring international bestselling health and nutrition books, they will feature a new topic of interest and fascination in the world of nutritional health each Monday. Listen in today as Christine and Jimmy talk all about the importance of a strong immune system in Episode 17. Here's what Christine and Jimmy talked about in Episode 17: 1. Definition of the immune system: protects the body from foreign substances, cells, and tissues by producing the immune response. 2. Three lines of defense A. Nonspecific Resistance/Barriers 1. Mechanical Barriers a. Intact skin b. Tears c. Mucous and mucous membranes d. Saliva e. Cilia f. Epiglottis 2. Chemical Barriers a. Skin (perspiration) b. Gastric juices-hydrochloric acid with a pH of 0.8 to 3 c. Lysozyme-an enzyme capable of breaking down cell walls of various bacteria. It is found in perspiration, tears, saliva, nasal secretions, and tissue fluids B. Nonspecific or “Innate” Immunity-white blood cells provide a rapid response to a wide range of invaders. Think of this as your surveillance system C. Specific or “Adaptive/Acquired” Immunity-white blood cells mount attacks on specific invaders that escaped the Resistance/Barriers and Innate Immunity 3. Things the Immune System includes A. The Thymus-helps develop T-lymphocytes or T cells which is an important type of white blood cell used in fighting infection B. Spleen-helps filter the blood for the immune system. Red blood cells are recycled here; platelets (a small colorless disk-shaped cell fragment without a nucleus, found in large numbers in blood and involved in clotting) and white blood cells (less technical term for leukocyte which include lymphocytes, granulocytes, monocytes, and macrophages) are stored in the spleen. The spleen also helps fight certain kinds of bacterial infections that cause pneumonia and meningitis. C. Lymph Nodes-they are small bean-shaped structures that stores cells called lymphocytes (a type of while blood cell) that fight infection D. Intestines-our intestinal tract contains 60% of our immune system E. Bone marrow-produces red blood cells (carries oxygen throughout the body and removes carbon dioxide from the body), platelets (involved in clotting), and white blood cells (help fight infection) F. Macrophages-a large white blood cell that can locate and eat particles like bacteria, viruses, fungi and parasites G. Lymphocytes-produce antibodies to destroy cells that might cause damage 1. B Cells-create Y-shaped proteins called antibodies and are developed in the bone marrow 2. T Cells-kills cells that have already been infected by an invader and are developed in the Thymus 3. Natural Killer Cells-composed of innate immunity and are responsible for helping to fight tunours and cells that are infected with viruses H. Antibodies-blood protein produced in response to and counteracting a specific antigen (a toxin or other foreign substance that induces an immune response in the body, especially the production of antibodies) 4. Types of pathogens A. Bacteria: completely independent, able to eat and reproduce quickly (can develop into millions of cells in 4 hours) B. Virus: 1/1000 smaller than a bacterial cell, not alive, attaches to a host cell and injects its material into that cell and uses the genetic material to make new viruses-the host cell bursts and releases the viruses C. Parasites: 1. protozoa-are one celled organisms like Giardia (a type of infection in the small intestines usually contracted by eating contaminated food or water) and Malaria (invades the red blood cells) 2. Worms-like Pinworm (small white worm whose eggs can be inhaled through the air or consumed through food) and Tapeworm (a flatworm that lives in the intestines and consumes nutrients that have already been digested) D. Fungus-plant-like organisms, many are useful and edible (mushrooms), some cause problems (Candida), and there are over 100,000 species of fungi like yeast and molds 5. Good digestion is critical for good immune function A. Proper stomach acid is needed to digest and absorb nutrients needed for good immune function B. Proper stomach acid is needed to digest the proteins we eat so the poorly digested proteins don't irritate our intestines leading to Leaky Gut and Autoimmunity-60 to 80 percent of our immune system is in the intestines. A decrease of good gut bacteria always leads to in increase in harmful microbes because it reduces the amount of good bacteria that can fight the bad bacteria C. The liver and gallbladder need to be working well to digest and break down the fats we consume (fats are needed in Prostaglandin formation which helps control and regulate inflammation) 1. Prostaglandin 1 or PG1-comes from Omega-6 fatty acids which are anti-inflammatory in nature A. Pumpkin seeds B. Raw sunflower seeds C. Pine nuts D. Pistachio nuts 2. Prostaglandin 2 or PG2-comes from Saturated fatty acids which are inflammatory in nature; inflammation, in this context is good because it allows the body to create a pathway for the immune system to do its job. A. Full fat dairy products B. Fatty cuts of meat like beef, pork, and lamb C. Lard 3. Prostaglandin 3 or PG3-comes from Omega-3 fatty acids which are anti-inflammatory in nature. A. Cod liver oil B. Salmon C. Walnuts D. Chia seeds Note: Histamines work with prostaglandins and are created by Basophils, a leukocyte or white blood cell, and histamines increase the permeability of blood cells to allow the white blood cells to move to the infected or injured tissues. 6. Good blood sugar regulation is important for optimal immune health A. Stress responses by the adrenal glands depress the immune system. The body has to decide if it's going to lower blood sugar or fight infection B. Blood sugar levels that are consistently high reduce white blood cell activity because high blood sugar levels cause high cortisol levels and cortisol is the hormone that regulates white blood cells 1. High cortisol levels decrease lymphocytes and other immune cells 2. Low cortisol causes an overactive immune system-white blood cells are in excess and this causes inflammation. 3. blood sugar levels that are consistently high deplete the body of nutrients needed for a healthy immune system 1. Vitamin C-certain cells of the immune like phagocytes and T-cells system need vitamin C to do their job 2. Vitamin D-helps the body produce over 200 antimicrobial peptides (2 or more amino acids) which help fight infections 3. Vitamin E-antioxidant that helps fight infection 4. Zinc-helps regulate the immune response 5. Beta-carotene-precursor to vitamin A which is needed for healthy mucous membranes 6. Calcium-helps support white blood cell activity 7. Iodine-a natural anti-bacterial and anti-viral agent 7. Proper hydration is needed for a healthy immune system A. Water is needed to keep the passageways of the lungs moist for easier breathing B. Proper hydration supports good lymphatic flow which allows the immune system cells to travel easier throughout the body C. If you are dehydrated, it can increase the histamine response which plays a role in allergies and asthma 8. Ways we rid the body of invaders A. Coughing, B. Sneezing C. Defecating D. Vomiting E. Tears F. Saliva 7. Immune Supporting Nutrients A. Vitamins A, C, D, and E B. Zinc C. Selenium D. Essential Fatty Acids 1. Linoleic Acid (LA) 2. Alph-Linolenic Acid (ALA) E. Aloe Vera-a gelatinous substance obtained from Aloe plants F. Garlic-an herb closely related to the onion family G. Licorice-from a plant in the pea family obtained from it's roots H. Echinasea- derived from a North American coneflower in the Daisy family that has antibiotic and wound healing properties Nutritional Pearl for Episode 17: It's important that we have good digestive function, proper hydration, and optimal blood sugar regulation so that our immune system can function at its best.

Episode 6 sees Eric and Phil dissecting the final pair of stop/plosive sounds in English: /k/ and /ɡ/. As always, we work our way around the task of describing the sounds, their history, and usage in the course of about an hour and 10 minutes.Show Notes:Correction: Phil referred to "Findlay" as derived from Finn's Lea, but it turns out that it's from Gaelic, and that means Fionnlagh – "fair warrior." Bradley would have been a much better example: Brad=broad and Lea=meadow.voiceless/voiced velar plosive: co-articulation, double action of closing the mouth with the back of the tongue at the soft palate, and closing off the nasal passage by lifting the soft palate at the velo-pharyngeal port.Let’s take a tour of the anatomy. This will help us to deal with the idea that /t/ is apico alveolar but /k/ is dorsovelarThe Roof of the MouthTectal: an adjective derived from the anatomical term "tectum," a roof-like structure. Labia/labial: the lips; bilabial with both lips, labio-dental with lower lip and upper teeth, as in /f/ and /v/. (For people with an extreme overbite, one might make a dento-labial sound (upper lip and lower teeth.)Dental: the teeth (as heard in the “th” sounds, /θ/ & /ð/ )Alveolar ridge/alveolar: the gum ridge, behind the upper front teethPalate/palatal: the hard palate, rising up behind the alveolar ridge. Phil describes a small hole in his palate; Eric, in searching the net for information on this, could only find stuff about "Jacobsen's Organ" aka Vomeronasal organ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vomeronasal_organ, an auxiliary olfactory sense organ; it's thoroughly debatable whether it exists in humans at all. Who knows what Phil has? (apparently, he hasn't had any of this since college days...)Velum/velar: the soft palate, behind the hard palateUvula/uvular: the "small grape"-like structure that hangs down from the arch of the soft palatePharynx/pharyngeal: the column or space behind the tongue, the "chimney" that goes from the larynx up to the noseEpiglottis/epiglottal: the flap-like value that protects the larynx during swallowingGlottis/glottal: the vocal folds (technically the SPACE between the vocal folds, which disappears every time the vocal folds vibrateAri-Epiglottal/ False Vocal Folds: [there was some debate between Phil and Eric how Dudley Do-Right sounded, and whether it was ari-epiglottal tension or velar tension...The Parts of the TongueTip or Apex/apical: front edge of the tongue, the 'rim' of the tongueBlade or Lamina/laminal: the front part of the tongue, the top surfaceBack or Dorsum/dorsal: the back of the tongue, which is subdivided into: Front, Middle, Back, or, Front and Back —antero-dorsal or postero-dorsalRoot or Radix/radical: the root of the tongue/k/ and /ɡ/ are different from other plosives because it is made on the back of the tongue, which works in a more gross mannercan be made further forward /ki/ or further back /kɑ/. Challenge of learning /k/ and /ɡ/ for children because they are made further back in the mouthThe McGurk Effect Experiment: Can you identify Phil's 3 sounds? World Atlas of Language Structures: http://wals.info/ WALS shows 2,650 languages and notes 32 missing / ɡ /Languages that are missing /ɡ/ but not /k/From Wikipedia [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voiced_velar_plosive ] "Of the six plosives that would be expected from the most common pattern world-wide—that is, three places of articulation plus voicing ([p b, t d, k ɡ])—[p] and [ɡ] are the most frequently missing, being absent in about 10% of languages that otherwise have this pattern.[...] It seems that [ɡ] is somewhat more difficult to articulate than the other basic plosives. "Ian Maddieson speculates that this may be due to a physical difficulty in voicing velars: Voicing requires that air flow into the mouth cavity, and the relatively small space allowed by the position of velar consonants means that it will fill up with air quickly, making voicing difficult to maintain in [ɡ] for as long as it is in [d] or [b]."HISTORY OF THE LETTERS:In Greek the symbol of the K (Kappa) turned the "right way" (the way it is in our writing), prior to this it was facing the other direction. Gamma was brought into Latin to represent the C. C had a line added to it to indicate the voiced version, G.SPELLINGS:k “key, keep, koala, kangaroo” “mask, make, pink, walk”c “cat, cost, cut” (contrast “cease, ace, ,macerate ”) Hard/softcc “accuse, stucco” ck “pick, stock”ch “charisma, Christ, choir, ache”Shakespeare's "Petruchio" probably should be [pəʼtɹu.tʃo] not [pəʼtɹu.ki.oʊ]g “game, gate, bag, agony” (contrast “gem, badge,magical ”) Hard/softgg “egg, dagger”gh “ghost, ghetto” (contrast “night, ought”)gu “guide, guest, guerrilla” foreign originckg blackguardx “examine, exhaust”Note that "x" can be /ks/ or /gz/ depending on the word, e.g. /ks/ "excellent" , /gz/ "exist".Soft G is the affricate /dʒ/, while Soft C is /s/.PHONETIC NOTATION: represented by lower case k and ɡIPA symbol for /ɡ/ is the "single-story" version of the g lowercase with an open tail, rather than a looptail. VARIATIONS:Not a lot of variations: mostly to do with voice onset timeVariation: final /k/ becoming fricative in Liverpool week [wiç], like [laiç], back [bax], dock [dɒχ]John Maidment, commenting on JC Wells' blog post on "VOT is more":"One might also like to add that VOT is sensitive to place of articulation. Other things being equal, the VOT of posterior articulations, velar and uvular, are considerably longer, at least for native English speakers, than articulations further forward in the vocal tract. A typical VOT for stressed syllable initial [k] in English is in the region of 120ms, while that for an equivalent [p]is only 60-70ms. I am pretty sure that this difference is an important secondary cue for the perception of place in voiceless plosives and one which, as far as I know, has not been properly investigated."Non-English Stop plosivesPalatalized stops (often heard in Russian, [tʲ] [dʲ] vs. Palatal stop [c] or [ɟ]Uvular stop, as in Arabic pronunciation of Qatar or Iraq [q].Though it's unlikely that a character will do a sound substitution on stop-plosives, however, characters might speak foreign language work, or say words within the text, such as place names or character names.Original Pronunciation: David Crystal is the leading proponent of this type of pronunciation, especially at the Globe Shakespeare Company in London. http://www.davidcrystal.com/DC_articles/Shakespeare11.pdf
