"The Wonder of the Human Body" is a weeklong speaker series in Dauphin.
Pastor Terry McComb plans to give a presentation every night about a different system of the body.
He shares with us what his goal of the presentations is.
“One of the 11 different systems of the human body in detail, one each night. And we start with the cell, which is 100 trillion cells in the human body. That’s a lot of cells. Most people don’t realize they manage that big of a company, but they do. These 100 trillion cells make up the 12 systems of the human body and it’s my goal to show how they all interrelate how these systems all coordinate together.
The first presentation is called "Wonder of a Cell" and it takes place tomorrow at 7 in the evening at the Curlers' Lounge in the Parkland Recreation Complex.
Those attending will learn how having a healthy lifestyle can reduce the risk of certain diseases.
Mccomb gives some examples. “A classic example is diabetes. Insulin does not cure diabetes, it only controls it. But the program I’m going to talk about is some things they can do as a diabetic that can actually reverse diabetes and not have to take Insulin for the rest of their lives. And heart disease, likewise, they may have to put a stint in there, but that stint doesn’t cure heart disease, it only manages it. So it’s my burden is to help people understand there are simple laws of health that either makes your body healthy or unhealthy.”
