Digestion

The holiday season has passed and the New Year is upon us. We've left behind the carbohydrate-rich repasts and those once-a-year special treats that would leave a bull elephant with a lazy, lethargic feeling.

But how does food go from solid or liquid to energy for your body? It's all due to that incredible set of organs deep within you. This week, we travel the human digestive system from beginning to, um, end, from top to, uh, bottom, from teeth to, err, well, you know.

TTFN, Fred.

Quote of the week: "It's time to start living the life you've imagined." - Henry James (American writer, 1843 - 1916)
