From the moment you take a bite, your body launches an extraordinary mission — breaking down everything you eat into the exact building blocks it needs to keep you alive, energized, and functioning.
And it's happening inside you right now, without you even thinking about it.
In this video, we take you on a full journey through your digestive system:
✅ Why your body can't just use food as-is — and what it's really searching for
✅ How proteins, fats, and carbs each get broken down differently
✅ The role of your mouth, stomach, and esophagus in the early stages
✅ What peristalsis is and why it's the engine driving everything
✅ How the small intestine, liver, and pancreas work as a team
✅ Where absorption actually happens — and how nutrients reach your blood
✅ What the large intestine and your gut bacteria do with the leftovers
✅ The two-part control system (hormones + nerves) running the whole show
Digestion isn't just a mechanical process — it's a dynamic, perfectly coordinated adventure happening inside you every single day.
