Random (possibly made up) Fact (statement) #9
Did you know…
Every year about 98% of the atoms in your body are replaced.
This brings a whole new meaning to “reinventing yourself” or “a new you”. I have always wondered if this was the case. I guess you could truly tell someone you hadn’t seen in more than a year, “you are a totally different person. I don’t even know you anymore”. If this is true then I wonder if the atoms replaced include the atoms in your brain and if so how do we remember anything for more than a year? I guess the atoms on their way out could tell the new atoms everything they know. What if something was lost in translation? Would we know? I guess not.
