Nutrition Processing System

///Nutrition Processing System

Our digestive system is uniquely designed to turn the food we eat into nutrients, which the body uses for energy, growth and cell repair.

Mouth

Chewing breaks the food into pieces that are more easily digested, while saliva mixes with food to begin the process of breaking it down into a form that our body can absorb and use.

Stomach

The stomach is a sac-like organ with strong muscular walls. In addition to holding the food, it’s also a mixer and grinder. The stomach secretes acid and powerful enzymes that continue the process of breaking down the food.

Small Intestine

The small intestine continues the process of breaking down food by using enzymes released by the pancreas and bile from the liver. Bile is a compound that aids in the digestion of fat and eliminates waste products from the blood. Peristalsis (contractions) is also work in this organ, moving food through and mixing it up with digestive secretions. The duodenum is largely responsible for continuing the process of breaking down food, with the jejunum and ileum being mainly responsible for the absorption of nutrients into the bloodstream.

Colon (Large Intestine)

Stool, or waste left over from the digestive process, is passed through the colon by means of peristalsis (contractions), first in a liquid state and ultimately in solid form as the water is removed from the stool. The stool itself is mostly food debris and bacteria. These bacteria perform several useful functions, such as synthesizing various vitamins, processing waste products and food particles, and protecting against harmful bacteria.

我们的消化系统是为了把我们吃进的食物转换成营养而特别设计的,好让身体使用这些营养提供能量,生长和修复细胞。

咀嚼切断食物成小块以便更容易消化,而唾液与食物混合是将它分解成我们身体可以吸收和使用的形式的一个过程。

胃是一个具有较强肌肉壁的袋状器官。除了装着食物以外,它也是一个搅拌机和研磨机。胃会分泌胃酸和酶继续分解食物。

小肠

小肠则会使用从胰腺和肝释放的酶和胆汁继续分解食物。胆汁是一种有助于脂肪的消化和从血液中消除废物的化合物。小肠也会通过蠕动(收缩)来移动食物和把分泌的消化液混合起来。十二指肠主要负责继续分解食物,而空肠和回肠是主要负责营养物质吸收进入血液的过程。

结肠(大肠)

从消化过程残留下的粪便或废物将经历蠕动(收缩)的体制,首先在液体状态,并最终以固体形式如将水从粪便中删除经过结肠。大便本身主要是食物残渣和细菌。这些细菌执行一些有用的功能,如合成各种维生素,处理废料产物和食物残渣以及防止有害细菌。
