What stage can we stop the process of swallowing a bolus of food?

We can stop the process of swallowing a bolus of food during the oral phase, which involves the voluntary act of moving food to the back of the mouth. Once the bolus enters the pharyngeal phase, swallowing becomes involuntary, and it is no longer possible to stop the process. The transition from the oral to the pharyngeal phase is marked by the triggering of the swallowing reflex.
