Wharton’s Jelly

Thanks To Wharton's Jelly

Tangles and loops are quite common in the umbilical cord. But, as per the data, there are only 1% of cords that have actual knots in them which prevents the blood flow. In most cases, umbilical cords contain a mucous substance in them called Wharton’s Jelly, which protects the blood vessels from being compressed.
