The Different Stages after Death

Death is a fact of life that everyone will go through one day and it’s the only phenomenon where it causes more sadness and pain to those unaffected. Clinical death is defined as cessation or failure of all vital bodily functions. The fascinating stages one’s body experiences immediately following death are:

 

·        Death Occurs: At the moment of death, the heart stops, the person starts taking short gasping breaths. The blood turns acidic. The lungs shut down and the brain also stops functioning.

 

·        0 Minutes: The death of the brain eventually shuts down all other vital bodily functions including circulation of oxygen throughout the body and to the extremities. The pupils of the eye begin to have a glassy appearance and the body temperature begins to slowly drop due to depleting oxygen levels.

 

·        1 – 9 Minutes: The muscles relax which results in the bowels and bladder beginning to empty. The eyeballs begin to flatten due to loss of blood pressure.

 

·        1 – 8 Hours: The stiffening muscles push on the hair follicle and it appears that the hair seems to grow longer. Anaerobic processes, such as the liver’s breakdown of alcohol still continue
