Description
Excerpted from the website description:
- The digestive system can get affected by gastrointestinal disorders. The gastrointestinal tract consisting of esophagus, stomach, small intestine, duodenum, jejunum, ileum, ileocecal valve and colon is described here. The various functions are briefly outlined and how the various food ingredients are absorbed in different anatomical locations. For instance, many vitamin nutrients and B12 vitamin are absorbed in the jeunum and ileum. When the water has been reabsorbed in the colon, stool is formed in the rectum. Three special digestive organs are the gall bladder, pancreas and liver. The function of these organs is briefly explained with regard to absorbing nutrients that are distributed to all of the tissues in the body. The liver is essential for the body's metabolism. A distribution table with links to the common digestive disorders is provided.
