核心要点
Your Body: A Universe Within
The human body is arguably the most extraordinary thing in the universe. This three-pound mass of mostly water, fat, and protein creates your entire conscious experience despite never directly experiencing the world itself. Your brain processes more information in thirty seconds than the Hubble Telescope has in thirty years. Yet it runs on just 400 calories daily-about a blueberry muffin's worth of energy-while using 20% of your body's resources. Every second, without conscious effort, your body manufactures a million red blood cells. Your 7 octillion atoms work in perfect concert to maintain your existence, despite having no consciousness themselves. If unpacked, your lungs would cover a tennis court, your blood vessels would circle Earth multiple times, and your DNA would stretch beyond Pluto. What's truly miraculous isn't the materials themselves-the same elements found in ordinary dirt-but how they organize into a living being.
