Interesting Health Facts

I found some really interesting health facts, here are few:

1. The average adult has 1 billion brain cells.  We lose 85,000 of these every day. If all our brain cells were laid end-to-end, it would be 200 million miles long.
2. A person will die from total lack of sleep sooner than from a lack of food. Death will occur after about 10 days without sleep, while starvation takes a few weeks.
3. 61% of Americans wear corrective lenses to improve their vision. More than 2 million Americans underwent laser vision correction procedures last year.
