Food spends about 3 or 4 hours in the stomach it then takes it about 3 more hours , sometimes more to move through the small intestine, After that it moves into the large intestine where it can stay for up to 36 hours dependant the food you ate. so unless you swallow a laxative of some sort, it can take about 40 hours or more.
