No is the answer. Sodium hydroxide is is such a strong alkali that it will 'burn' the cells just like acid does. So it is not found in body. Instead you have sodium bi carbonate. But you have very strong acid in stomach. Hydrochloric acid. Imagine acidity go on increasing ten times as you go from 6 to 5 and 5 to 4. And pH in stomach is 1 to 2. (Why does not stomach is 'not' charred at this pH ?) Pepsin works in high acidic pH only and almost stop working at 5.5 pH. So no question of digestion in sodium hydroxide, which is strong alkali with very high pH. If you lower the pH pepsin starts working again.
Strong emotions can cause anything from butterflies in the stomach to a nervous stomach or stomachache. It is also hard on the digestion because your gall bladder produces more acid in the stomach. The stomach is also a muscle and if you are up-tight or stressed to the max it can become hard and your food isn't digested as well. Taking walks after dinner or Yoga to reduce stress (even swimming or working out at the gym or bike riding) can help. Stay away from acidic fruits, sauces, spicy foods and drink 8 - 8 ounce glasses of water every day and more if you are perspiring more.
Cows have one stomach with four chambers. Each of those chambers are called the reticulum, the rumen, the omasum and the abomasum. All four of these chambers, by working together, are responsible for the break-down and digestion of feedstuffs that the cow eats so that nutrients and minerals can be absorbed to be used by that cow's bodily systems.
Enzymes are necessary to keep digestion going.
If that happens, the body will starve to death.
William Beaumont
Dr. William Beaumont discovered gastric acids in the 1820's and is known as the "Father of Gastric Physiology". He published his book "Experiments and Observations on the Gastric Juice, and the Physiology of Digestion" in 1838.
It depends on what is "working" and what the concentration of it is.
Sulfur-smelling burps indicate improper digestion in the stomach. The gastric juices may not be working effectively, which may be due to certain food combinations or allergies. Another possible reason would be that the food consumed is not sanitary.
starve causing death
it is very easy to prepare working solution from a stock solution we use the formula for this purpose which is: C1V1 = C2V2 C1 is the concentration of the stock solution V1 required volume from the stock solution C2 concentration of the working solution V2 volume of the working solution
running is a very good way of working your stomach
