What organs produce blood?

What organs produce blood?

Many people may have this understanding, thinking that as long as there is no bleeding or blood donation, the blood in the human body will not be lost. In fact, this is a misunderstanding. When blood flows in the human body, it will be consumed. Some will die, and some will be excreted from the body. In order to replenish fresh blood, there must be hematopoietic organs to provide the human body with a steady supply of blood. So which organs in the human body can produce blood?

The first blood-forming organ is the bone marrow.

Bone marrow hematopoiesis may be the human body's hematopoietic factory. Here, under normal circumstances, human bone marrow is distributed more frequently, for example, in the spine, ilium, ribs and other proximal places, where there are hematopoietic areas. Therefore, some trabeculae in the bone marrow divide the bone marrow into many small holes like honeycombs. These places are the home of the blood. Therefore, many hematopoietic stem cells in the red bone marrow are the seeds of the blood cells here. This is also the place where primitive red blood cells, primitive granulocytes, primitive monocytes, primitive lymphocytes and primitive megakaryocytes are regenerated. Therefore, if your bone marrow loses its hematopoietic function, then this must be a dangerous signal. The bone marrow produces the fastest blood among all organs. Therefore, if there is any obstruction in your bone marrow blood production, anemia will occur.

The spleen also has the function of hematopoiesis.

Generally, blood production begins three months after the fetus is born. However, the hematopoiesis here does not mean that hematopoiesis will continue after adulthood. The spleen's hematopoiesis generally lasts for about eight months of the fetus, and then it no longer produces blood. Instead, it is directly delivered to the already formed bone marrow.

Of course, the kidneys also have a certain hematopoietic function. This was also discovered recently. They discovered that erythropoietin actually originates from the kidneys, so the erythropoietin in the kidneys can effectively stimulate the hematopoietic function of the bone marrow.

Lymphoid tissue also has the function of hematopoiesis.

In fact, various hematopoietic organs in the human body will continuously produce new blood cells. This ensures that there are various types of blood cells in your blood, thus achieving a metabolic balance.

Therefore, the above organs can effectively help you achieve the possibility of hematopoiesis. In normal times, you should also protect these organs to avoid harm.

I would like to talk about leukemia here. Nowadays, many children only drink beverages but not water. We know that most of the water in the human body is absorbed by the large intestine, which absorbs water and transports it to the kidneys. When you only drink beverages but not water, the large intestine can only absorb the water in the beverages and absorb the sweeteners in the beverages together. Sweeteners are non-degradable. When they enter the kidneys, they enter the human bone marrow. The bone marrow is hematopoietic, and the temperature of the bone marrow is lower than that of the human body. Sweeteners are even more difficult to degrade. Finally, the sweeteners block the reticular structure of the bone marrow and cause hemolytic anemia. So be sure to drink more boiled water and less beverages.
