The uterus is shaped like an inverted pear. The fallopian tubes are on both sides along with two ovaries containing thousands of human egg cells. The ovaries also secrete the female hormones estrogen and progesterone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe egg cell, or ovum, is the female reproductive cell. It is very large, unlike the tiny male reproductive sperm cell. The ovum contains cytoplasm and unwound DNA, which promotes internal movement and flow. While men produce millions of sperm during their lives, women are born with a lifetime trove of several million eggs. By adulthood, only about 400,000 remain. In fact, only about 450 of the millions of egg cells will ever even have a chance to become a baby.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEvery day of a woman’s fertile life several dozen eggs begin developing. Normally only one egg will mature each month and take the daring journey down a fallopian tube where it has the chance of encountering eligible sperm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen fertilized by a sperm, the egg becomes a zygote, which divides and moves into the uterine cavity. Here it implants itself in the inner membrane of the uterus. The cells keep dividing, growing and developing into a fetus lying snugly in amniotic fluid and nourished through the placenta.

The natural “fight or flight” reaction to stress and danger has enabled people to survive over the millennia. It is always helpful to be alert and frightened when a snake slithers or a bear growls nearby. In our modern world, people face different types of stress. We all might feel anxious before taking a test, when faced with a problem at work or before making a big decision. But anxiety disorders involve more than temporary worry and fear. If a person has so much anxiety that it becomes uncontrollable or debilitating to everyday life, it may be considered an anxiety disorder.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHealthcare experts use the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, or DSM, to diagnose anxiety and other mental disorders. The symptoms of anxiety include excessive worrying, restlessness, difficulty sleeping and irritability. Globally, tens of millions of people suffer from anxiety disorders. With so many impacted, it is very important that everyone better understands this mental illness and its treatments. There are several types of anxiety disorders, including generalized anxiety disorder, panic disorder and various phobia-related disorders. All are highly treatable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGeneralized anxiety involves excessive, illogical worrying for no specific reason. Social anxiety presents itself in social situations. Panic disorder involves random panic attacks causing rapid heart racing and the feeling of choking or having a heart attack. Phobia disorders are when one has an intense and out of proportion fear of or aversion to specific objects or situations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAnxiety disorders are generally treated with therapy, medication or both. Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors, or SSRIs, are drugs that can reduce anxiety by increasing brain levels of serotonin, a neurotransmitter that influences mood, sleep and cognition. SSRIs block the reabsorption (reuptake) of serotonin into neurons. In addition to medication or therapy, lifestyle habits can be beneficial. It is important to try to wake up early, stay active and avoid self-medication. Stress management techniques can also be helpful. People should work with their healthcare professionals to select the best treatments.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Old Op Apothecary Shop","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47422644617557,"sku":"2281","price":13.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0823\/1102\/0885\/products\/IMG_7087-scaled.jpg?v=1698334645"},{"product_id":"giant-microbe-depression","title":"Giant Microbe: Depression","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eFeaturing a brain with a thought cloud outlined by a silver lining, this is a unique, memorable and useful tool to help educate, spread awareness, and hopefully get more people talking about this complicated and vitally important mental health topic.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis Depression Brain plush toy is approximately 11cm in size, includes a printed card with fun, educational, and fascinating facts, and is safe for ages 3 and up.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMaterials and Care Instructions: Plush from all new materials.

It is also referred to as major depressive disorder or clinical depression. This extremely debilitating mental illness consists of repeated and ongoing sadness, loss of interest or excitement in activities, decreased appetite and energy, and inability to concentrate. People with depression are sometimes so fatigued that they don’t get out of bed all day, yet have a hard time falling asleep at night. Depression can cause insomnia because melatonin, the hormone that regulates sleep, is derived from serotonin, which is depleted in a depressed person’s brain.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs with anxiety, everyone experiences feelings of sadness from time to time. But with depression, bouts of unhappy feelings may happen for no apparent reason. Clinical depression may be diagnosed if symptoms of depression occur without a trigger and are affecting a person’s ability to function every day. The causes of depression remain unknown. Scientists believe it is related to reduced activity of one or more monoamine neurotransmitters, such as serotonin, dopamine and norepinephrine. This is known as the monoamine hypothesis. Current medication-based treatments for depression are based on this hypothesis. Monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs), tricyclics, and selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) are commonly prescribed antidepressants. These theoretically work to increase the depleted levels of these neurotransmitters in depressed people.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnfortunately, depression can lead to self-harm, feelings of worthlessness and even suicidal thoughts.

The actresses Marilyn Monroe, Susan Sarandon and Whoopi Goldberg are some of the famous sufferers of endometriosis.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn adolescents and adults, endometriosis is often found in the pelvic and abdominal areas on the ovaries, bowel, bladder and soft tissues, but the lungs and other regions can also be affected. The origin of name is from Greek: “endos” meaning inside, “metra” meaning womb and “osis” for disease. This name implies that the endometrium, the inside lining of the uterus, causes an affliction. The cause remains uncertain, but theories include hormonal, genetic and environmental origins.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne theory is retrograde menstruation in which endometrial cells flow back through the fallopian tubes and enter the pelvic cavity. Another theory is that an immune system problem makes the body unable to recognize and destroy endometrial tissue growing outside the uterus. Recent studies have even linked endometriosis to sunbathing and the use of tanning beds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne problem in treating endometriosis is the difficulty that doctors face in diagnosing it. Ultrasound and MRI imaging, for example, may not find it. A diagnosis can be made through minimally invasive surgery. There are no definitive cures for endometriosis, but there are effective treatments to ease symptoms. These include surgical removal of the lesions combined with exercise, physical therapy, nutrition, pain management and medications. Women who struggle with endometriosis do remain hopeful. Through education and increased public awareness, there will be an increase in the funding of medical research for diagnosing, treating and curing this disease.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Old Op Apothecary Shop","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47422645272917,"sku":"2348","price":12.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0823\/1102\/0885\/products\/Endometriosis.jpg?v=1698334669"},{"product_id":"pillow-potion","title":"Pillow Potion","description":"\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eLavender, Frankincense \u0026amp; Bergamot Pillow Potion | Calming Sleep Spray | Room Mist by Salix Moon Apothecary\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThis is a deeply relaxing pillow spray with a blend of calming Lavender, grounding Frankincense and soothing Bergamot essential oil in a 100ml cobalt blue glass bottle with an atomiser spray.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eMist generously throughout your dream space and onto your linens as part of your soothing bedtime ritual.

From speaking and seeing, to thinking and remembering, your brain controls what you do. Can you imagine 10 billion neurons sending out trillions of messages every minute? You certainly can because your brain gives you an incredible imagination! But the brain takes a lot of energy to do its job, even just to read this card. It uses 25% of all the nutrients you eat and 25% of the oxygen you breathe. Making up only about 2% of your body’s weight, for its size the brain uses ten times more energy than most other body parts.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAfter many centuries of research and study, our brain still doesn’t know very much about itself. The brain is the most complicated part of the human body, and perhaps the most amazing structure in the entire universe. We have learned some things about its three main parts: on top is the cerebrum for thinking, learning and feeling; to the rear is the cerebellum for moving the body; and below is the brain stem for controlling breathing and other automatic processes.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThere is no single place in the brain where you think and remember. These processes are spread out among many parts and billions of nerve cells. These neurons have spidery-looking extensions called dendrites and axons that link together at synapses. Tiny electric pulses pass through this nerve network, carrying information around the brain and body. If you remember what you are reading here, then your brain is doing a good job making new circuits between nerve cells.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe human brain is the most hopeful thing there is. It provides people with original thoughts, ideas and emotions. Your brain lets you concentrate, daydream and learn. With it you can write books, create music, run a race and solve complex problems.

Learn all about these amazing protists.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFACTS: Euglenas are very common aquatic creatures found in fresh water, salt water – and laboratory droplets. They are one of the most studied microscopic organisms!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEuglenas possess the representative features typical of eukaryotic cells, such as a nucleus, mitochondria, golgi bodies, lysosomes, and vacuoles. But their most distinctive characteristics are a long flagellum and a large red eyespot. (Euglena means “good eye” in Greek, though the eyespot is actually an eye lid of sorts which obscures light from other photoreceptors as the cell rotates.)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlthough Euglenas can squirm and crawl like other microorganisms, their long flagellum twists like a propeller allowing them to pull themselves forward at a much faster speed. And by navigating towards the light, Euglenas can increase their food production.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn fact, Euglenas play symbiotic host to green algae and other micro-organisms which produce food for the Euglena while benefiting from its ability to move toward light. Sometimes, they are so successful at eating and multiplying they can turn an entire pond green!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEarly taxonomists were fascinated by Euglenas because not only can they produce their own nourishment via photosynthesis like plants, but they can also move about and feed like animals by absorbing nutrients from decaying organic matter into their bodies. In the end, it was decided that the Euglena was neither a Plant nor an Animal, but a Protist which is, well, neither a Plant nor an Animal – or both.

Lungs rely on your rib muscles and the diaphragm to expand and deflate. Air travels down your trachea into two bronchi, dividing into bronchioles and then into the millions of lung cells called alveoli. These clusters of tiny airbags provide a tennis-court sized area to maximize gas exchange. This is where the magic happens, where oxygen from the air is absorbed and passes into your blood. Carbon dioxide, a waste product of metabolism, travels from the blood to the alveoli, where it flows out and is exhaled.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlveoli is a word taken from Latin meaning “little cavity”. So the lungs are in effect an enormous cavity enabling us to breathe. The lungs are covered by a thin layer of tissue, the pleura, and by lubricating fluid which allows smooth expansion and contraction.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere are many types of lung cells. Type 1 epithelial cells, or squamous alveolar cells, form most of the alveoli. They are devoid of organelles, such as mitochondria and golgi bodies, and have incredibly thin walls for effective gas exchange. Type 2 epithelial cells are cuboidal in shape and produce a surfactant to keep the alveoli moist. The lungs also have alveolar macrophages that provide a defensive mechanism against microbes and other harmful substances we breathe into the lungs. If this seems like a lot to take in, just take a deep breath and cherish your magnificent lungs!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"The Old Op Apothecary Shop","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51356359033173,"sku":"846869010053","price":11.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0823\/1102\/0885\/files\/Image_82.jpg?v=1756547111"},{"product_id":"giant-microbe-tb","title":"Giant Microbes: Tuberculosis (TB)","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis plush representation of TB provides a memorable hands-on-way to learn about this global disease and how it targets the lungs and throat.
