What do you know about your Digestive system? Did you know that there are nine parts in your body that have a role in the process of digesting your food ?

The digestive system mostly has one main part the alimentary canal. This is a long tube that extends from the mouth to the rectum that is where the food you eat is broken down. As the food travels through the “Tube” this food is ground up and mixed with acids and digestive fluids. These fluids are made of enzymes and chemicals that speed up the digestion. The parts that make up the tube is the mouth which hold the teeth that grind up the food. Next is the stomach which produces a acid that breaks down food. Next is the gallbladder this part is where the bile from the liver is stored till it needs to help break down the food even more.

Can you guess the next part? It is only about 6 inches long and it is one of the most important parts of the digestive system. It's the pancreas. This organ produces an enzyme that breaks down the starch protein and fats that may be in the food you eat. After it goes through the pancreas it goes to the bile duct to the next stop. The next stop in the digestive track is the duodenum. This section is the first part of the small intestine this is where the food stops and that bile from the liver and the pancreas break down the carbohydrates and fats even more. Then the food travels into the small intestine this is where the food that needs to be absorbed into the body is to be absorbed in to the small intestine. Next is the large intestine where most of the water is absorbed into the body. Then it goes to the last link of the race. At this end all there is only solid waste which gets thrown out of the body. It is called the anus.
