- The skin is your body's largest organ.An average adult's skin spans 21 square feet,weighs nine pounds and contains more than 11 miles of blood vessels.
- Your skin can release as much as 3 gallons of sweat a day in hot weather.
- The only areas of the body that don't sweat are the nail bed ,lip margins,tip of the penis and the ear drums.
- Globally,dead skin accounts for about a billion tons of dust in the atmosphere. The skin sheds 50,000 cells every minute.
- Body odour comes from a second kind of sweat, a fatty secretion produced by the apocrine sweat glands found mostly around the armpit,genitals and anus.
