Alhamdulillah :)

Pos tertangguh jumaat lepas. . . . heee



May peace be upon you !


Yesterday in the Anatomy lab, we learn about duodenum and its relation to pancreas. When we checked out the structure on the body, I found that the pancreas is super-small about half of my palm (if you make a line connecting the root of the middle finger to the wrist)


Recently we studied diabetes, CHO metabolism and lipid metabolism in Biochem and just yesterday we finished our pancreas course in Physiology. Not forget to mention we also have learned pancreas in Histology last semester. 

In Biochem,mainly in the 3 main topics that I mentioned above, the importance of pancreas in human is well explained. There are 'thousand' of pathway that are affected by insulin secretion thus somehow give it a control to our body as insulin regulates them. 

That tiny little organ is the only organ that secrete Insulin to control the glucose level of our body. 
If the pancreas become exhausted as hyperglycemia is prolonged (as in diabetes) Insulin secretion will be impaired and you loss your main system of maintaining your blood glucose. 
That little buddy is off form his job and the situation will be out of control due to many complications.

Our body depends on glucostasis to maintain our blood glucose in a range,
if hyperglycemia or hypoglycemia occur either severe or acute, complications will take place.

SubhanAllah, even our body is arranged to be very moderate, 
what about us ?

when Rasulullah did advice us to 'bersederhana dalam kehidupan ini.' 


Sabda Rasulullah,
'Hiduplah engkau di dunia seperti seorang perantau atau musafir lalu'
(Hadis riwayat Imam Bukhari)

Yes! as a traveller 
who is just passing by in this 'dunia' during his ultimate journey,
who does not always be in comfort-zone, 
who always struggle to find the right way to reach his destination 
which is redha Allah di akhirat sana.

That little pancreas is one of Allah's given nikmat.
Maka nikmat Tuhan kamu yang manakah kamu dustakan? 
(ar-Rahman 55:13)

so treat your pancreas well :)
Alhamdulillah atas nikmat sihat ini.
Na'udzubillah dari marabahaya.

Jumuah barokah everyone !
off to Bahnasa tonight.

mar d
gathering my courage ;)
