HUMAN NUTRITION

Detailed explanation-1: -Digestion is a process that converts nutrients in ingested food into forms that can be absorbed by the gastrointestinal tract. Proper digestion requires both mechanical and chemical digestion and occurs in the oral cavity, stomach, and small intestine.

Detailed explanation-2: -The digestive system breaks down food into nutrients such as carbohydrates, fats and proteins.

Detailed explanation-3: -What Is the Digestive System? Food is our fuel, and its nutrients give our bodies’ cells the energy and substances they need to work. But before food can do that, it must be digested into small pieces the body can absorb and use. The first step in the digestive process happens before we even taste food.
