Alveoli are part of the reparation system found in the lungs. They are covered in capillaries. In Alveoli, oxygen diffuses from the air into the blood vessels surrounding the alveoli and carbon dioxide from the body diffuses from blood into the alveoli’s air spaces. Alveoli clump together and form sacs.
Without efficient nutrient absorption, our body won’t function properly leaving us susceptible to deficiencies and disease.

Dr. Charles is using fMRI when she uses strong magnets to track changes in the brain's blood-oxygen levels.
Functional magnetic resonance imaging or (fMRI) is a techique used to measure brain activity by detecting changes associated with blood flow. When an area of the brain is in use, blood flow to that region will increase.
