2. YOUR SKIN Considered the largest organ in the human body.
Made up of three major layers - epidermis, dermis, and hypodermis (also called the subcutaneous tissue).
Protects your inside organs while keeping infections out and prevents you from getting sick.
Lose about 30,000 to 50,000 dead skin cells almost every minute

3. YOUR SKIN
Sheds a layer of these dead cells every 24 hours and renews itself about every 28 days.
Swells when it absorbs water.
Contains a protein called keratin which is also found in hair and nails
Is the thinnest on the eyelid.
Goose bumps are actually little pimples that help retain a layer of warm air over our body.

4. YOUR SKIN
Average adult’s skin spans 21 square feet, weighs nine pounds, and contains more than 11 miles of blood vessels.
Releases as much as three gallons of sweat a day in hot weather.

5. YOUR SKIN
Blowin’ in the wind: Globally, dead skin accounts for about a billion tons of dust in the atmosphere. Your skin sheds 50,000 cells every minute.
