Continuing our exploration of the neck muscles, this second video focuses on the Suboccipital Triangle.

The purpose of these muscles is to provide fine motor function in movements of the head. It also serves as a landmark when considering surgeries for different diseases.

The small intestine is the longest section of your gastrointestinal tract, measuring roughly 6.5 meters (21 to 22 feet).
It uses its own enzymes to break down proteins, fats and carbohydrates, absorbing about 90% of all nutrients and water from your daily meals.
