Digestive System

The Aspicol 75 medicine is used in the prevention or the treatment of acid indigestion and the sour stomach.

Because once the product leaves the active site, more substrate can enter. So the enzyme will keep on working until all the substrate is used up.

YES! It effects the valve between the stomach and the esophagus!

I have been getting it every afternoon for months, coming home with stomach cramps, and realized it was my dipping into our company "logo" mints which are like altoids!

With high stomach acid levels, we as humans can pretty much digest most organic materials and compounds, however at one point humans were able to digest grass and leaves and one point thousands of years ago. Evidence is found in our appendix a small useless organ that at one point secreted enzymes that helped digest leaves/grass, with evolution this organ wasn't necessary and slowly shrank giving no function to the body. People can live without the appendix.

Chewing helps break the food down in your mouth, and when you swallow the bits and pieces travel down the esophagus. Once it's in your stomach, your stomach churns it up some more by expanding and shrinking, until it travels farther down the body. The intestine collects the water from what is left, and the remains travel out the body as urine, feces, or carbon dioxide.

The digestive tract begins at the oral cavity and continues through the pharynx, esophagus, stomach,
small intestine, and large intestine, which opens to the exterior at the anus.The digestive tract produces at least 18 hormones that affect almost every aspect of digestive function.
The Oral Cavity: limited digestion of carbohydrates and lipids.
The Tongue: secretion of mucins and the enzyme lingual lipase. Both are also involved in mixing and the teeth are involved in grinding food.
The primary function of the esophagus is to convey solid food and liquids to the stomach.

The stomach: disruption of chemical bonds in food material through the action of acids and enzymes,
production of intrinsic factor, a glycoprotein whose presence in the digestive tract is required for the absorption of vitamin B12in the small intestine.
Parietal cells in the stomach secrete hydrochloric acid (HCl). Chief cells secrete pepsinogen, an inactive proenzyme. Pepsinogen is converted by the acid in the gastric lumen to pepsin, an active proteolytic enzyme.
The stomach is a holding tank in which food is saturated with gastric juices and exposed to stomach acids and the digestive effects of pepsin.
The pancreas provides digestive enzymes, as well as buffers that help neutralize Chyme (the stomach mixture).
The liver secretes bile, a solution stored in the gallbladder for subsequent discharge into the small intestine. Bile contains buffers and bile salts, compounds that facilitate the digestion and absorption of lipids.
The small intestine is a very long tube where nutrients are absorbed. You must have a certain length if this is to occur. Lastly, the colon absorbs water and stores what we call feces until they can be eliminated.

Yes, humans can digest goldfish just like any other fish but I wouldn't recommend it.

raw would be easier to digest because it is a liquid but raw egg can be poisonous.

Size of a soda straw at narrowest point. Search for popcorn choking hazard - many articles mention that.

Yes and no, depending on the parasite, if the parasite have evolved a mechanism to not be killed by stomach acid, it passes safely through the stomach, that's why we get tapeworms, its eggs are, strictly speaking, immune to acid.

Though don't worry, stomach acid kills most of the things going through.

Digestive enzymes are diverse and are found in the saliva secreted by the salivary glands, in the stomach secreted by cells lining the stomach, in the pancreatic juice secreted by pancreatic exocrine cells, and in the intestinal (small and large) secretions, or as part of the lining of the gastrointestinal tract.

Digestive enzymes are classified based on their target substrates:

1.proteases and peptidases split proteins into small peptides and amino acids.

2.lipases split fat into three fatty acids and a glycerol molecule.

3.carbohydrases split carbohydrates such as starch and sugars into simple sugars such as glucose.

4.nucleases split nucleic acids into nucleotides.

Food is broke down into smaller molecules because if it isn't broken down, it'll get stuck in your body.

The function of the digestive system is to break down the food we eat into simpler substances that can be absorbed by the blood.

Destroys bacteria

They are gritty and rough. They help break down and paralzy food

if you don't move a lot and rest you can slow your metabolism down and your food will digest slower.

Answer

Eat foods that take the body longer to process--raw fruits and vegetables, whole grains and such are complex carbohydrates. This will keep you from feeling hungry longer. You can also eat slowly or eat smaller meals more often.

Leopards could be forced to eat grass like we are forced to eat vegetables.

You swallow them whole. The capsule is made of gelatin and will dissolve in your stomach.

No, chicken is easier to digest in the human body than beef. Beef stays in a person's system longer.

It's Gizzard grinds its food.

As long as the magnet is not sharp or too large to fit through your digestive system, no, they are not harmful.
