We're all made of nylon and now I can't sleep at night.

Nylon is a copolymer of a diamine and a dicarboxylic acid, but it can also be composed of just one monomer if the monomer has both a caboxyl and amine group on it. What sort of molecules have both of those functional groups? Amino [m'kay] acids, which are the basic units used to synthesise proteins in the body. That's right. We're made of [m'kay] nylon.

[SWINE FLU]

I'm so nylon.

Better than polyester!

[WD-40]

I'm made of Carbon, Aluminum, Iron, urine and sometimes alcohol.

[ATCStewart]

Drink warm milk, it helps.

[burzerker]

Doesn't that mean we shouldn't wrinkle?

[Matt-Chicago]

The jigsaw has now fallen into place.

I'm made of Carbon, Aluminum, Iron, urine and sometimes alcohol.

I'm actually made of Data LOT'S OF DATA!!!!
Sometimes i overload and explode(when i'm moody) and then i have to get my cooling sistem running(some alcohol)

We are made of 65% oxygen, 18% carbon, 10% hydrogen, 3% nitrogen. The other 4% are trace elements (including calcium, phosphorous, potassium, sulfur, chlorine, sodium & magnesium). That is about 99.9% of the composition of our body.
Our body uses our ingested energy(food) quite efficiently, that's why we gain weight so easily...
Our thoughts and memories are just a series of many electrical impulses through neurons. You could say our brain is like biological CPU, only more efficient (energy wise) and vastly more processing power.
How's that for Chemistry with a touch of Biology?!

Our body isn't very energy effecient. All metabolic reactions are inefficient and a large proportion of the potential chemical energy available to organisms is vastly reduced at each trophic level, so there.
