Health & Medicine on Khan Academy: No organ quite symbolizes love like the heart. One reason may be that your heart helps you live, by moving ~5 liters (1.3 gallons) of blood through almost 100,000 kilometers (62,000 miles) of blood vessels every single minute! It has to do this all day, everyday, without ever taking a vacation! Now that is true love. Learn about how the heart works, how blood flows through the heart, where the blood goes after it leaves the heart, and what your heart is doing when it makes the sound “Lub Dub.”

It's good to clarify the different types of diabetes (or any disease for that matter: herpes, neurofibromatosis, etc...). I will be sure to clarify whenever the specific type of diabetes is relevant to the video. If I forget, please let me know! =)
They should help out with medical school and the USMLE...that's my hope. =)
Applies to Type B, but Type C is a much milder illness (more like a common cold).
enjoying all your presentations and it's very cool to turn something which could be just seen as personal misery into objective science, beyond ourselves.. thumbs up! Fascinating channel generally, learning a lot!
Rishi, does your uploads help with the first two years of medical school, I am starting my first year of medical school next Fall, and I was wondering how much watching them is going to be related to what I am going to be learning in medical school and USMLE Etc..... Thanks in advance
Thank you for the education. I love your channel - you make things so easy to understand.
Great Job!

Flu is known to be spread by particulars in the air, by skin contact, and ingestion. Now look around you do you have a drink container at your work station, is the top open? Is the drinking/lip area completely covered? Tops with straws sticking out of and slurpply lids are a landing field for stuff, it’s a good thing to have a total closed top (like a stein lid) that can be removed and replaced to keep your drink safe. Think of having your own drink container and protector/lid/cover with no holes, that you personally clean.
I hope the pregnant friend doesn't have any back issues in the future XD
flue or corona
Going to work feeling myself ... This 3d guide to idiocracy is really stupid, the guy gets sick and looks to blame somebody. Wake up caca academy
After all the restrictions for years idgaf about infecting others anymore. It's the fact of life
