The digestive system

Every piece of food we eat goes through the digestive system as it does goodness inside it sucked out and put into the part of our body that needs it.If we didn't have the digestive system we wouldn't have any nutrients in our body and nutrients helps us do every day

things.The digestive system starts at the mouth and ends at the anus.

Our food passes through the following body parts:

*Oesophagus

*Small intestine

*Large intestine

Lots of things happen in the digestive system:

*Food goes through the mouth

*Digested food is absorbed

*Water is absorbed

*Undigested food goes to the anus

The liver and pancreas are very important in the digestive system.Liver produces bile which digest fats and oils.The pancreas speeds up the digestive reaction.

Teeth break down food so that we can swallow it easily.Teeth are one of the strongest types of bones in our body.If we didn't have teeth we wouldn't be able to absorb the nutrients or be able to swallow our food.
