After being swallowed, food enters the stomach where it gets mixed with stomach acid and enzymes that break it down into smaller molecules. These molecules then move to the small intestine where they are further digested and absorbed into the bloodstream to be used as energy by the body. Any remaining waste travels to the large intestine for water absorption and eventual elimination from the body.
