The musculoskeletal systemThe skeleton, made up of all the body's bones, provides strength, stability, and a frame for muscles to work against in producing movement. Bones are both strong enough to support our weight and light enough to allow us to move. They protect delicate internal organs and store important minerals. |
|||||||||||||||||
| Bones come together to form joints, most
of which are in constant motion. Muscles make up almost half the weight of the human
body. Skeletal muscles work together with bones to provide the power that enables
us to move. Tendons attach muscles to bones, and ligaments surround joints and connect
one bone to another. The ends of bones are covered with cartilage, a smooth, tough,
protective tissue that acts as a shock absorber and reduces friction. We also include the skin here - the largest organ of the body - which acts as a protective barrier to the outside world. Skin also helps to regulate body temperature, senses painful and pleasant stimuli, and shields us from the sunās harmful effects. |

When things go wrongThe most well-known musculoskeletal problems are related to degenerative changes in the joint tissue and these problems affect thousands around the world. Skin disorders include the minor problems of dry or thin skin, boils, and blisters, as well as more troubling conditions such as psoriasis and eczema. |
||||||||||||||||||
Why things go wrongAlthough bones and diet may not seem connected, they are. Our standard diet may be a major risk factor for arthritis and osteoporosis. It also can result in unhealthy looking skin. Excess weight on joints, lack of essential fats (skin disorders), and under and overexercise also contribute to musculoskeletal problems. |
