Does the Corioulis force effect our blood cycle[?]

Does the Coriolis force, in any way, pertain to the centrifugal force of the earth?

You get a Coriolis acceleration in addition to Centrifugal for example on a plane flying round the Earth - that is when you have something moving inside a rotating frame. For the 'person on the equator' example, only a centrifugal acceleration is acting because he's standing still. If that's what you're asking? Happy to try to explain better/further if you want...

In Feynman notes Vol I Chapter 19 Richard points out that Centrifugal force is radial while Coriolis Force is tangential.
In Chap 20 of Vol I he gets real when he reminds us that because angular momentum is a dipolar phenomenon, interaction with other dipoles demands vector cross-product, which gives perpendicular torque when the loop is inertial and perpendicular dipolar magnetism when the loop is electrostatic.

The 'w' here in '-2mw x v' is the angular velocity of the Earth ie the Earths velocity / Earth radius, a constant 7.27e-05 radians per second. Forget relativity, this is good ole' Mechanics
So if you have a circle of radius 2, start at one point on the circumference, and start walking, you will have traveled an angle of one radian when you have walked a distance of 2.

The Coriolis force is a phenomenon that affects the direction of moving objects on a rotating surface. While it may have an impact on large-scale weather patterns and ocean currents, it has no significant effect on the direction of blood flow in our bodies. This is because the force is only noticeable on a large scale and our bodies are much too small for it to have any noticeable impact.
No, the Coriolis force does not have any influence on the rate of blood flow in our bodies. The rate of blood flow is determined by the pumping action of our heart and the constriction and dilation of our blood vessels, not by external forces like the Coriolis force.
No, there is no scientific evidence that suggests the Coriolis force has any impact on our blood cycle. The force is only significant on a large scale, and our bodies are much too small for it to have any noticeable effect on our blood flow.
No, the direction of the toilet flush has nothing to do with the Coriolis force. The direction of the toilet flush is determined by the shape of the toilet bowl and the angle at which the water enters the bowl, not by the Coriolis force.
No, the distribution of nutrients and oxygen in our bodies is controlled by our circulatory system, not by external forces like the Coriolis force. The force is only significant on a large scale and has no impact on the transportation of nutrients and oxygen within our bodies.
