How Much Can You Eat?
HISTORY OF COCA COLA TECHNICOLOR DOCUMENTARY from 1939 WORLD'S FAIR 72162
Subutai and the Mongol invasion of Europe
Transcription
Vsauce, I’m Jake and I’ve been playing
a lot of the game Super Smash Bros recently
especially as the character Kirby who is known
for his ability to inhale and ingest things
a lot larger than himself. And that got me
thinking about our own bodies, the way they
digest and their limits when it comes to shoveling
food into them which brings up the question...How
Much Can You Eat?
Our bodies are full of surprises. Actions
and processes that are always happening that
we aren’t entirely conscious of, for example
the incredible functions of saliva. Let’s
go to the bar.
On average, you make 2 to 4 pints of saliva
a day or about a half gallon. If you’ve
ever eaten something acidic like a pickle,
you might have noticed that more saliva enters
your mouth, this is because your mouth is
trying to dilute the acidity to protect you.
Or when you eat bread you’ll notice it starts
to get sweet. That’s the saliva breaking
starch down into sugar for your body to use.
When you say something melts in your mouth,
it’s probably because of saliva. It also
has histatins in it which speed up the healing
of wounds.
Fun fact: sugar isn’t bad for your teeth,
it’s the metabolites that are created by
bacteria feeding on the sugar in your mouth
that are bad
It’s weird how you’re probably more aware
now of saliva currently in your mouth since
we started to taco bout it.
Did somebody say “Taco”?
Oh, hey Taco Tammy!
Hey Jake! Did you know that not only do you
have taste receptors in your mouth, but also
in your stomach, voice box and esophagus?
This is true, but thankfully the only ones
that talk to our brain are the ones on our
tongue.
Or did you know that your stomach digests
itself?
Yup, your stomach lining replaces itself every
3 days.
Or did you know…
Don’t do it, Jake. Don’t eat the talking
taco. It’s just the hunger hormone or Ghrelin
being released in your stomach due to the
visual stimulation of a giant delicious taco.
Forgive me.
Jake, no, noooooooooooo!
How our stomachs digest food was a mystery
until 1822. Dr. William Beaumont treated a
man who had accidentally been shot in the
stomach. He survived but Beaumont was unable
to close the hole in his stomach, giving him
a window into the digestive process. He would
place food through the hole, take out gastric
acid for sampling, and even put food and other
objects into test tubes with the acid to see
how the stomach would digest it. (Pull out
from anatomy model) What he discovered was
that digestion was more of a chemical process
than a mechanical one. All, this talk of gastric
acid and digestion is making me hungry, are
you hungry? Oh still got some salsa on me.
Come with me.
Our stomachs can hold around 3 to 4 liters
of stuff. If you try and put more than that,
your body will tell you to stop and if you
don’t it will finally just make you throw
up. But can you die from eating too much?
Yes...kind of, if you ingest a lot of sodium
bicarbonate. The people who have died from
a stomach explosion did so because they were
incredibly full of food and had ingested too
much baking soda/alka-seltzer, which reacts
with the acid, creating gas and causing them
to burst. I’m sure you’ve done experiments
with vinegar and baking soda in a ziploc bag.
But then there are people like legendary eater
Charles Domery.
In one day Domery ate 10 pounds of raw beef,
4 pounds of raw cow udders, 2 pounds of candles
and 3 large bottles of beer, a total of 20lbs.
In the 1790s he was in the Prussian Army during
the War of the First Coalition against France
but ended up deserting and joining the French
military since their food rations were larger.
Then there are professional eaters like Takeru
Kobayashi who ate 18 pounds of cow brains
in 15 minutes.
Now that might seem like a weird thing to
eat, but people have eaten weirder.
Pica is a disorder where you crave and eat
nonfood items like dirt, paper, metal and
chalk.
Michael Lotito was famous for eating things
you generally wouldn’t. He ate a 15 pound
bicycle, a coffin and, over the course of
2 years, an airplane.
Luckily he just ate airplanes and not people.
Kuru is a very rare disease that attacks the
nervous system and one that you can generally
only get from eating human brain tissue. It
came about in the tribal regions of Papua
New Guinea where people would cannibalize
their dead relatives during funeral rites.
So don’t eat human brains...or just don’t
eat people. Remember Charles Domery? He tried
eating the leg of a shipmate who had it blown
off in a sea battle. Hunger can you make you
do crazy things, but our bodies are always
protecting us. In general, it wont let us
eat so much that we explode and will try to
protect us when we put harmful things in it.
We can’t swallow as much as Kirby but Kirby
has another characteristic - when he inhales
people he can also absorb their traits...and
that is very similar to what we do with food.
We absorb the nutrients, the pieces necessary
to keep our bodies moving, our brains functioning,
our stomachs digesting and our saliva flowing.
All these little pieces come together to make
us work so you could say that you are what
you eat...which is even more true if you eat
people...and as always...thanks for watching!
Charles Collins and Steffi Duna in Dancing Pirate (1936)
He began his film career straight after leaving school and worked for two years in camera crews before becoming a chief cameraman for the first time in 1936, with 20th Century Fox.[1] He worked on Quo Vadis (1951) and Rope (1948), the latter for Alfred Hitchcock, with longer scenes than usual in films of that time. He received nine Oscar nominations and won once, sharing Best Cinematography (color) with Joseph Valentine and Winton Hoch in 1949 for Joan of Arc.
