During sympathetic discharge, e.g., if you running away from a lion, gastrointestinal motility is suppressed and blood is diverted to muscles. At this point digestion is not a priority - at least not for the prey.
The gastrointestinal tract is part of the digestive system.
Autonomous nervous system. Consisting of Parasympathetic nervous system and Sympathetic nervous system. Parasympathetic nervous system increases the secretions of digestive tract and Sympathetic system decreases the secretions. Parasympathetic system increases the contractions of smooth muscles and increases the rate and force of peristalsis and Sympathetic system does vise verse.

neuromuscular system
The digestive system features lumen in the gastrointestinal tract. Absorption is the passage of digested end products from the lumen of the GI tract through the mucosal cells into the blood or lymph.
GI tract is innervated locally by the enteric nervous system and activity of the Cajal pacemaker cells and by the autonomic nervous system (sympathetic / parasympathetic). It is not innervated by the somatic nervous system. I'm a neurobiologist/physiologist.
Sympathetic stimulations are signals to the body that imply stress. Sympathetic stimulation stimulates the sympathetic part of the peripheral nervous system and results in multiple response such as increased cardiac output, dilation of the pupil, inhibition of the smooth muscles of the gastrointestinal tract and urinary bladder, and erection of the penis.

Digestive system has got own local nervous system in the form of myenteric plexus. But then it is supplied by vagus nerve, the tenth cranial nerve, that comes down all the way from your skull. It has got powerful influence on your digestive system. Only terminal part of digestive system gets it's parasympathetic nervous supply from the sacral autonomic outflow.
Yes, the digestive system has its own nervous system called the enteric nervous system. This network of neurons controls the function of the gastrointestinal tract independently of the central nervous system. The enteric nervous system helps regulate digestion, absorption of nutrients, and movement of the intestines.
The GI (Gastrointestinal) tract or the Digestive Tract
Stimulation of the Parasympathetic nervous system causes an increase in digestive tract mobility. When stimulated the parasympathetic post-ganglionic neurons release a hormone called Acetylcholine. This causes the Digestive tract to increase its contractions. Counteracting this increase in digestive tract mobility is the sympathetic nervous system, which releases a hormone called noradrenaline which slows down the digestive tracts contractions. This is how the Parasympathetic Nervous System gets the name "rest and digest"
The Gastrointestinal system
The sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems are part of the autonomic nervous system (ANS) which innervates (supplies) smooth muscle, glands, and cardiac muscle.The sympathetic (thoracolumbar) nervous system deals with the fight-or-flight response. It gets the body ready to deal with emergency situations by increasing heart rate, dilating the pupils and airways, decreasing digestive tract motility, and stimulating adrenal glands and sweat glands.The parasympathetic (craniosacral) nervous system restores the body to homeostasis after a stressful or traumatic event/situation. It stimulates the body to decrease heart rate, increase digestive tract motility, constrict pupils, produce tears and saliva, and stimulate thoracic and abdominal viscera.
The waste removal system, or excretory system,gastrointestinal tract, (GI tract.)
The rhythmic contractions of tubular organs, such as the esophagus or intestine, are called peristaltic waves. These waves propel the food material forwards. They are automatic due to local nerve plexus. The peristaltic waves increase in rhythm and force due to stimulation by the parasympathetic autonomic nervous system, and decrease due to stimulation by the sympathetic autonomic nervous system.
