The digestive system is a crucial part of the human body, responsible for the breakdown of food into nutrients, which are then absorbed into the bloodstream to fuel bodily functions. This article discusses the anatomy and physiology of the digestive system, its main components, and the process through which food is digested and nutrients are absorbed. Additionally, we analyze the different disorders that can affect the digestive system, emphasizing the importance of maintaining a healthy digestive tract.
