The document outlines the journey of food through the digestive system over the course of a day. It notes that food is swallowed 10 seconds after entering the mouth and typically spends 4 hours in the stomach, though rich foods may spend longer. In the small intestine, the meal is slowly squeezed through and undigested leftovers reach the end of the digestive tract about a day after being swallowed.

JOURNEY
6pm : Food Gets swallowed 10 sec after it enters your
mouth.

makes it easier to chew . Food
Then heads down to the
esophagus to your stomach.
 Stomach : In your stomach
acids helps to turn it into semi
liquid before it is squirted into
the intestine.

parts of your digestive
system mash up food
physically just like a food
processer does. Your mouth
breaks food into chunks.
Your stomach then churns
these around until they form
a slushy liquid.

digestive organs make juices
that breaks down the
chemicals in food the juices
contain enzymes which turn
large food molecules into
small molecules.
