Hello,

The digestive process starts the moment food enters your mouth  it’s broken down by chewing and saliva. Then it travels through the esophagus to the stomach, where acids turn it into a semi-liquid mix. Next, it moves to the small intestine, where nutrients are absorbed into the blood. What’s left passes to the large intestine, where water is taken out, and finally, the waste exits the body.

Derivation:

The word digest comes from the Latin “digestus,” meaning to separate or dissolve, perfectly describing how the body breaks food into usable parts.

Thank you
