Food Absorption?!


Question: I was how long it takes your body to fully digest and absorp a typical meal?


Answers: I was how long it takes your body to fully digest and absorp a typical meal?

Digestion will only take a couple of hours, but the nutrients will either be stored or used for energy to do everything you do. If its a large meal it may take longer. One reason I eat small portion meals all day is that they digest fast and I'm always using up the energy so I need a constant supply. Of course some on the nutrients will be stored as fat, also for future use. A lot has to do with the speed of your metabolism.....if it's up and running it will digest quickly, but still send some to storage.

I believe it takes 12 hours for your food to digest.
