Digestive Supplements
What is Digestion?
When we eat such things as bread, meat, and vegetables, they are not
in a form that the body can use as nourishment. Our food and drink must
be changed into smaller molecules of nutrients before they can be absorbed
into the blood and carried to cells throughout the body.
Digestion is the process by which food and drink are broken down into
their smallest parts so that the body can use them to build and nourish
cells and to provide energy. Once it has been absorbed, food can be used
to do the things needed to keep the body going. Without the process of
digestion, these nutrients would remain locked in food and unavailable
to the body.
Digestion involves the mixing of food, its movement through the digestive
tract, and chemical breakdown of the large molecules of food into smaller
molecules. Digestion begins in the mouth, when we chew and swallow, and
is completed in the small intestine.
What is Digestive System?
The digestive system is responsible for receiving food, breaking it
down in to nutrients, absorbing the nutrients into the bloodstream, and
eliminating the undigestible parts of food from the body. The digestive
tract consists of the mouth, throat, esophagus, stomach, small intestine,
large intestine, rectum and anus. The digestive system also includes the
pancreas, the liver and the gallbladder.
