For starters, i would like to explain what digestion is. Digestion is the breaking down of food in the body, into a form that can be absorbed and used or excreted. Also, it can be defined as the process by which the body breaks down food into smaller components that can be absorbed by the blood stream. And of course all takes place inside the digestive system! Now, the question is, what makes up of the digestive system? Well it actually starts with the phases of gastric secretion, moving on to the oral cavity, the Esophagus, the stomach and small intestine and finally the large intestine.
During the next few posts i will be going through the different phases of the digestion process
