🌿 Understanding the Urinary System
This paragraph introduces the importance of the urinary system in the body's waste disposal process. It explains how the kidneys, located in the upper abdominal area, function as filters to clean the blood and separate waste compounds. The waste, combined with excess water, forms urine which is then transported to the bladder via the urethras. The bladder stores the urine until it's expelled from the body through the urethra. The speaker emphasizes the health risks associated with holding urine for extended periods, such as infections and urinary retention, which can weaken bladder muscles and affect the ability to fully empty the bladder.

hey friends um
[Music]
excuse me
[Music]
it feels so good to attend the call of
nature
hey
i'm sorry to leave you in the middle of
our conversation
but it always is important not to hold
your pee for a longer period as it might
cause certain complications
but first it's essential to know how
your urinary system works
so without wasting more time let's zoom
in
the urinary system comes into play for
the disposal of liquid waste
our bodies keep generating a lot of
hazardous and unwanted liquid waste
these are toxic waste products which
will circulate in our blood until
disposed off
and as excess water can be waste too our
body gets rid of it through the urinary
system so how does it work
the urinary system starts here in our
kidneys these organs are located in the
upper abdominal area against the back
muscles on both the left and right side
of the body that acts like filter
devices for our body
when the blood passes through the
kidneys it gets cleaned and separates
the waste compound
this waste combines with excess water
makes urine which we generally call p
after that the urine is pumped down
through a couple of tubes called the
urethras leading to the bladder a pouch
like organ that holds the pee until the
body is ready to get rid of it
and you feel like going to the bathroom
and finally the bladder contracts and
pushes the pee into another tube we call
the urethra which carries the p out of
the body
trivia time
did you know if you make the habit of
holding your pee for ages you're
subjecting yourself to severe long-term
effects including a higher risk of
infection
constantly holding in your pee can
weaken your bladder muscles which could
lead to urinary retention
a dreaded condition that prevents you
from being able to fully empty your
bladder when you pee
and makes you feel like peeing a lot
so in the interest of long-term health
it's not a good habit to hold your pee
for too long
but fortunately for the short term your
brain and body have got you covered
it's question time
so friends today's question is are
kidneys named after kidney beans or it's
the beans named after the kidneys
