    I actually moved to Japan a little over a year ago and the typical medications people use can be a bit different from the western world.
    In terms of pollen allergies, people don't typically take antihistamines, and instead wear surgical masks to limit the amount of antigens entering their bodies. People where I live only typically take medicine when the symptoms are especially bad, and rather than histamines it would be steroids. This might help explain why the show went the steroid route rather than the antihistamine route for the episode.

      it also explains why the plant pollen is from cedar trees and not, like, ragweed or grasses, which is what's common in america. i was also really surprised about how cells at work chose to use steroids, because americans tend to see steroids as a big boy drug that's really only used when otc options don't work

      Literally the only error you currently have is an erroneous apostrophe; you've got a level of English comprehension that I would associate with those that use their second language as a major component of their job. That's fluency nearly on par with native speakers, and the only reason I say "nearly" is because the structure is a bit strange- certainly nothing that could be considered incorrect, just not perfectly natural. You're doing a fantastic job and you'll only continue to get better, but I consider this mastery already.

    As a scientist, myself, I absolutely loved the series and their take on the intra/intercellular communications and how everything worked out, finally even bringing up phagocytosis, showing the ridiculous overreaction, showing how useless eosinophylls would be toward bacterium, while being a powerhouse against parasites, and the adorable platelets... And Dr. Hope's take on this all did excellent in breaking down the highly complex situations and comparisons and simplifying it, further-explaining what the show only touches on in a more technical sense.
    It's actually pretty funny; because, I'm literally going through a good number of these situations (Outside, of course, of the parasite and the food poisoning). It's nice to see how the anime heroes in my body are combating the illness and allergic reactions I'm currently facing, as well as how the steroid I just had to take unleashed a damn robot to wreck the membranes of my body's cells.

    The way I see all the destruction and mayhem seemingly being caused by the pollen is how the cells perceive the 'invasion.' In that one scene you showed, it seemed like the panicking cells knocked into the pollen, *pushing* it into the building. So it was still the cells over-reacting that caused the damage and misapplying blame.

    • @KitZunekaze
      @KitZunekaze 6 років тому +3

      To be fair the representation of a steroid like hydrocortisone was a bit exaggerated in this episode, as well. But it fit a theme of over-exaggeration being the problem. A cool thing with the show, though, is you never hear about the body but if they're getting steroids for a standard pollen reaction, they must have had a very severe reaction and possibly even ended up in the hospital. Otherwise much less potent medicine would have been fine.
      Dr.Hope explains a steroid better than I could, but they don't cause as much collateral damage as represented in the anime.

    I am anaphylactic to peanuts and mildly allergic to a long list of things, so getting this explanation is extremely helpful. Thank you!

    Thanks for reviewing this episode! As a sufferer of allergic rhinitis for more than a decade, it really made me feel better. Antihistamines are my saviors but yknow, they make me sleepy.
    It sucks having allergic rhinitis bec it's difficult to do things such as touching dusty things, hugging teddy bears, too much face powder, perfumes, and other things. I love how this episode covers the whole process for the non-medical people to learn. Very educational!

    Yay! New episode. Thank you for these! I'm currently in Alaska still recovering from the recent earthquake, and this is really helping my morale stay up. Perfect timing

      clericneokun 'advise' is used in caution: such as: "advise me, sir." 'advice' is the correct word you're trying to spell: "what's your advice?" referring to giving beforehand information.
      it may not seem to have a difference, but there IS. *_LOL_*

    6:25 - the pollen does not cause damage, but maybe some cell saw it and did a damage report just in case ("well, it has not damaged anything yet, but I'm sure it will, better call the police/immune cells anyway", "HELP, the pollen is killing everything its path!") and then the immune cells overreact causing the allergic reaction.
