WHAT DOES OUR APPENDIX TELL US? Let’s look at the picture and find appendix (7,8 yellow). This little part of our body sometimes can cause so many problems to the humanity: 40% of all the surgeries deal with removal of appendix. I’m inviting you to explore what for we need this part of body which for many years has been considered useless. Studies show that this little appendix is only 10 centimeters long, but it has as many nervous elements as small and large intestine altogether. But contrary to intestine it has massive lymphoid organs, thus serving as immune and protective organ. Moreover, appendix produces hormones controlling the work of large intestine. Isn’t it too much for an organ considered to be useless? But that is not all, besides its immune and hormonal functions appendix has one more very interesting function. It will be more interesting for us because it will lead us to understanding what food we should eat. Appendix is an incubator for our microflora!!! The scientists from the medical school of Duke University (USA) presented results of their research where they came to the conclusion that appendix’s role in the body is to be a kind of a shelter where native microorganisms may hide from external actions in times of unfavorable conditions. What dangers our microorganisms (microflora) have to hide from? They hide from what suppresses them. Our native microorganisms hide from alien bacteria and microbes (putrefactive microbes (one of them is shown on the picture to the right). the food we eat defines the presence of our or alien microflora. If we eat raw vegan food, our native microorganisms thrive, producing for us all the vitamins and amino acids. If we eat cooked food or food of animal origin, we enlarge the number of alien microbes that eat dead flesh and produce poisons, intoxicating our body. When it happens, most of our native microorganisms die and those of them who are lucky to survive are hiding in our appendix. We know already that appropriate human food is raw vegetable food. In the times when people could not find raw vegetable cellulose (for example, during cold times or drought times) they had to eat meat or other unnatural food. It was totally suppressing the native microflora of the large intestine. Let’s look at the picture once again: we are interested in small intestine (5, pink): the food from small intestine passes to the large intestine (1-4, grey), it has a special section called blind intestine (6, green), it is attached to appendix (7,8, yellow). When cooked food comes into our large intestine the sphincter (valve) between blind intestine and large intestine shuts and food passes directly into large intestine, bringing alien microbes and burning out our 20
