Digestive System
In a year an adult human needs to eat more than a half a tonne of food. Thatβs half the weight of a small car π. An adult also needs to drink π· about 700 litres of water π¦ which is enough to fill 50 baths. π€
Swallowing is the start of a long journey for your food π₯ that takes 24 hours or more and involves travelling up to 9 metres through a dark tube full of powerful chemicals. π
. An important part of food which the body does not digest is fibre. Fibre helps the intestines to stay healthy. Fruit and vegetables π and whole meal foods in Wichita every part of grain is used contain a lot of fibre.
. Processed foods have been changed so much that they lose some of their natural goodness. White bread π₯ for example has very little fibre left.π
