What is Digestive System Overview and Functions about?
The digestive system breaks down food into smaller molecules that can be absorbed and used by the body. It includes the mouth, esophagus, stomach, small intestine, large intestine, liver, gallbladder and pancreas. Food is broken down mechanically and chemically through these organs. Enzymes and acids produced throughout the system help break down carbohydrates, proteins and fats into molecules small enough to be absorbed and used for energy, building materials and other functions.
