Human body is made up of countless millions of
cells. Food is needed to built up new cells and
replace the worn out cells. However, the food that
we take must be changed into substances that can be
carried in the blood to the places where they are
needed. This process is called digestion.
The first digestive process takes place in the mouth.
The food we eat is broken up into small pieces by
the action of teeth, mixed with saliva, a juice
secreted by glands in the mouth. Saliva contains
digestive juice which moisten the food, so it can be
swallowed easily.
From the mouth, food passes through the esophagus
(the food passage) into the stomach. Here, the food
is mixed with the juices secreted by the cells in the
stomach for several hours. Then the food enters the
small intestine. All the time the muscular walls of
the intestine are squeezing, mixing and moving the
food onwards.
In a few hours, the food changes into acids. These
are soon absorbed by the villi (microscopic branch
projections from the intestine walls) and passed into
the bloodstream.
