Hey there !!

So, basically we relate fainting and dizziness with being tired, and sick, but, there are certain uncommon triggers that can make you faint.

Here we are with a list of weird things that can make you faint !!

Before beginning let me tell you that fainting can quite well be connected with low blood pressure, so anything that can affect your blood pressure, can as well be a reason for you to faint.

1. Peeing Can Make You Faint !!




Believe it or not, peeing can make you faint ! So, your blood pressure falls down drastically right after urination, it has got a name, called Micturition syncope. Although it's not fully clear to medical science. The fall in blood pressure can make you faint. It's something usual for older people out there. Haven't you heard of your granny fainting in the toilet. 

2. Standing Up Can Make You Faint !! stay seated child....




When you stand up suddenly, after sitting or lying down for a long time, gravity pulls blood down into your legs, reducing the blood flow to your brain at an instant. So that can be a cause as well !! So remain seated and just keep reading fedUP feeds !!

3. Laughing For A Long Time !!

Everyone loves to laugh, Loud and weird !! But take this, laughing for a long time, gives your stomach cramps, right ?? and the situation can even get serious, it's rare, but it's possible that intense laughter could cause you to drop down with a thump !! and that as well has to do with blood pressure changes.
So, yah! an amazing thing like laughing out to your heart's content can as well make you faint.

4. Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo !!


Quite a name....BPPV, it's basically about the dizziness you feel, when you suddenly get up out of the bed all in a hurry. It's quite common in case of aged ones. And it's also called Positional sickness or Vertigo, So when you wake up, take your time to get up!

5. Stop eating !!


Food is something that provides you energy and hence it can't be a reason for dizziness, right ?
Actually not, there are certain food items that can make you faint, for example, eating stuffs, that get digested real quick, can make you faint. And that's because of Postprandial hypotension.

Side Note- Postprandial hypotension, is a condition that occurs after eating. It's caused by increased blood flow to the abdomen, which takes blood flow away from other parts of the body, especially the brain, and that's why you feel sleepy after eating.

So, eating stuffs like, alcohol, chocolate, milk products, food with monosodium glutamate, nuts, can make you faint !! 

Those were five such uncommon and weird causes of fainting and feeling dizziness. Share with us, in the comment section below, your worst fainting or dizziness experience.

Why Do Men Have Nipples ? Reasonable Biological Explanation !!

Hey There....

While we all know, by sense and even by science, as to why women have nipples- to feed babies, right ?

But what we don't know is, why do men have nipples ?





So, in this article we are gonna look at this from a simplified biological point of view.
While from Darwinian point of natural selection, male nipples seem to serve no real function and by now should have been bred out of the species, and since we still posses them, even after such an evolutionary race of changes over time, it means, it serves at least some function, if not that necessary for life.
So let's first discuss a bit why human have nipples anyway.....
Well, that needs a bit of biology here :-

during the development of embryo, basically whether the child will be a male or female is decided by sixth or seventh week, mark that one, before that, the embryonic development is the same, the same structures are formed in both cases, and like many more nipples also form within these initial weeks, and thus it doesn't matter if you are gonna be a boy or a girl, you are going to have those two little projections on your chest, simply because, it's part of the basic body design, decided even before determination of your gender.

While later during gestation, or say during embryonic development, female embryos, lacking the Y- chromosome will undergo changes in mammary cells, starting with the development of a pit at the center of each nipple, that connects to the lactiferous duct, that brings out the mother's milk.
Well remember, this happens even in males to some extent. It's strange but it's true that even males have, rather say, males as well as females have mammary glands and hence posses the ability to lactate, though not that developed in case of males.
So, if you are a man, you could have fed your breast milk to your child !! Yahh !! sounds weird, right? 


Now, let's come to the most important part...

FUNCTIONS OF THE MALE NIPPLE !!


Honestly, there's not that much of it, but stay right there, you are gonna find it amazing.
While male nipples are considered to be vestigial, but they are there for some purpose, at least.they are as said earlier, remnants of fetal development.

Nipples actually contains a dense supply of nerves, and when it comes to the nervous system, it comes to sensation and stimulation. As such, nipples are considered to be a secondary sex characteristic along with pubic hair and stuffs, like widened hip and enlarged breasts in women and facial hair and an Adam's apple in men.

So, like female nipple, male nipple is as well quite sensitive and can contribute to sexual arousal when stimulated. More on that, the male nipples are actually even more prone to such stimulation. 


So basically out of the whole book, the one firm reason males have nipples down there, still, is because of sexual pleasure and a few good moments with your partner !

so it's not at all a good idea to shave off your nipples, cause they seem totally useless to you.

World's Most Dangerous Animal | HUMAN BEINGS !!

WHO'S MORE DANGEROUS ??
Well, it appears to be quite an easy question, but believe me on this, it's a difficult one. cause the answer here would depend on what you are looking for.
world's most dangerous animal in terms of the huge quantity they poop out, or the one which kills more, or simply the one which eats the most.
So, here let's not go into the facts and let's generalise this a bit, let's make it a bit fun, and so here's a fun to know fact for you out of it.

In the Munda Wanga Environmental Park, in Lusaka, Zambia, there's a cage with a note outside saying- "THE WORLD'S MOST DANGEROUS ANIMAL". Now the best part, inside the cage there's a mirror, in which, of course, you can see your own face, behind the bars. Now that makes sense and it's quite a creative way to make us scratch our head to think how 'DANGEROUS' we actually are, if not to us, then think about it this way; to our fellow species and to the mother nature.

So, think about it for a minute, how we treat our nature, and our fellow stakeholders of the earth.
