Humans are the worst animals

An elephant’s spine is not built like a horse’s or a camel’s. Beneath their thick skin and muscle, their vertebrae feature sharp, upward-pointing protrusions. These structures are designed to support the animal’s own body weight and natural movements, not the additional burden of heavy equipment or passengers.

When elephants are used for tourist rides, the combined weight of saddles—often made from rigid materials—and multiple riders presses directly on these bony points. Over time, this pressure can cause abrasions, tissue damage, and even permanent deformities in the spine. The injuries often lead to chronic pain and reduced mobility, making daily life far more difficult for the animals.

In many tourist destinations, these risks are not widely explained to visitors. Yet veterinary studies and wildlife organizations have repeatedly documented the harm caused by such practices. Understanding the biology of these animals makes it clear that their welfare is compromised when they are used in this way. 🐘🚫

The position of the tongue within the mouth can influence autonomic nervous system activity. Research indicates that when the tongue rests against the soft palate, it may reduce sympathetic activity, which is associated with the body's "fight or flight" response. Conversely, proper tongue posture, such as placing the tongue against the hard palate, may promote parasympathetic activity, facilitating a "rest and digest" state.

The parasympathetic nervous system, primarily mediated by the vagus nerve, plays a crucial role in regulating stress and digestion. Activation of this system can lead to decreased heart rate and enhanced gastrointestinal function.

While direct evidence linking tongue posture to parasympathetic activation is limited, maintaining proper tongue posture is considered beneficial for overall health. Practices such as myofunctional therapy aim to correct tongue positioning, potentially supporting vagus nerve function and promoting relaxation and improved digestion.

If you don't move it you lose it. So true. I have osteoarthritis in my hip and two herniated discs. I hike daily and practice yoga. If I don't, I pay heavily for it with pain.

Very interesting! Try it!

This is interesting..🤔🧐

From birth, your tongue is actually connected to your toes through an intricate network of connective tissue known as fascia.

If your tongue is not resting correctly in your mouth due to mouth breathing, things can get out of alignment in your mouth and the rest of your body.
Tongue posture can lead to a foot imbalance and vice versa because the tongue guides all myofascial continuity structures that run from the inner arch of the foot up through the middle of the body to the tongue and jaw muscles.

When the tongue sits on top of the palate, it seals the oral cavity and holds the throat open like a tent. These muscles support the neck, keep your posture straight, help you breathe, and maintain your posture upright.
Your tongue also acts as a rudder and support system through a fascial line, and when the tongue is down, we breathe through our mouth, and the head falls forward due to lack of support, which leads to poor posture and increased energy expenditure.
