How long is your digestive system.?
443240
The digestive system begins with the mouth and extends through the esophagus, stomach, small intestine, and large intestine, ending with the rectum and anus. Other organs in this system include the liver, pancreas, gallbladder, and appendix.\nThe large and small intestines are between 25 and 28 feet long.

Your skin is the LARGEST.  If you're actually looking for the LONGEST, it is the SMALL intestines (5 meters long, large interstine is 1.5 meters long).

about a week,but it depends on how many you ate.where they anygood?havent had those in many years.

It depends on the test, urine 72 hours, blood 30 days, hair 3 to 6 months, tissue could be years...... good luck....

Looks like it's more of a cleaning outthan anything. I'd assume once you cleaned out your system your digestion would be a lot smoother. Prolly helps with metabolism too. looks worth trying if you're able to. Wouldn't stay on it longr than the week though.

It doesn't take days to digest food, but rather hours. How long it takes to digest food depends largly on what type of food it is. Food high in fiber takes longer to digest than foods low in fiber. That is one of the reasons fiber is good for helping people feel full longer and it is reccommended for those trying to lose weight to eat lots of food full of fiber. Fiber also is great for the digestive tract as it helps keep it clean, due to the fiber pushing out other foods. \n\nBeef is not very high in fiber. In fact, I don't think beef has any fiber at all. It has a lot of protien, which is really good for you too, but it lacks fiber. So, it should only take about 6-8 hours to digest beef.

The gallbladder (or cholecyst sometimes gall bladder) is a pear-shaped organ that stores about 50 mL of bile (or "gall") until the body needs it for digestion. The gallbladder is about 7-10cm long in humans and is dark green in appearance due to its contents (bile), not its tissue. It is connected to the liver and the duodenum by the biliary tract.\n\nclick here:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gallbladder#Anatomy

The small intestine is about 18-23 feet long and consists of three subdivisions.\nThe large intestine is about 5 feet long and is made up of the cecum; the ascending, transverse, descending, and sigmoid portions of the colon; and the rectum.

It depends on how low your b12 is and how well you absorb it. It could last a week, a month or 7 years as your body can store upto 7 years worth of b12.  Best bet, seek medical advise from your Dr. Good luck

Average is 7-8 hours (for an adult) to maintain health.

should be 72 hours. also depending on how much you eat and drink. been through that enough.

Digestive System Organs\n\nEsophagus- A simple conduit between the mouth & stomach.\nStomach- Where the enzymatic digestion of proteins initiated and foods are reducted to liquid form.\nLiver- It's major role is to provide bile salts to the small intestine, which are critical for digestion & absorption of fats.\nPancreas- Important roles as both and endocrine & exocrine organ- provides a potent mixture of digestive ezymes to the small intestine which are critical for digestion of fats, carbs and protein.\nSmall Intestine- Where the final stages of chemical enzymatic digestion occur & where almost all nutrients are absorbed.\nLarge Intestine- Major differences among species in extent & importance - in all animals water is absorbed, bacterial fermentation takes place and feces are formed. In carnivores, that's about the extent of it, but in herbivores; like the horse, the large intestine is huge and of critical importance for utilization of cellulose.\n\nEXCRETORY ORGANS\n\nLUNGS- Diffuses carbon dioxide from the blood, into the lung tissue, and then leaves the body everytime we exhale.\nLIVER- The largest internal organ in our bodies. Its numerous functions make it part of the circulatory, digestive, and excretory systems. Some proteins & other nitrogenous compounds are broken down in the liver by a process called deamination. The liver produces bile, which is temporarily stored in the gall bladder before being released into the small intestine where it helps break down lipid molecules. The liver removes & breaks down old red blood cells. It is also responsible for maintaining normal levels of glucose in the blood. The liver is ALSO responsible for removing potentially hazardous chemicals from the blood. It "detoxifies" the blood.\nSKIN- Sweat comes out of pores in your skin. Sweat is a mixture of 3 metabolic wastes: water, salts, & urea. So as you sweat, your body accomplishes 2 things: sweating has a cooling effect on the body, and metabolic wastes are excreted.\nKIDNEYS- they filter the blood. The kidneys help filter the blood.\n\nRESPIRATORY \n\nNose & Nasal Cavity- airway, moistens & warms air, filters air, resonating chamber for speech, houses smell receptors.\n\nPharynx (throat)- connects nasal cavity to oral cavity & larynx & esophagus. Is a common path for air and food.\n\nLarynx (voice box)- Provides an open airway. Routes food to the esophagus & air to trachea.\n\nTrachea (windpipe)- Descends from larynx & divides into the 2 primary bronchi. Is mobile; stretches, recoils, moves side to side. \n\nLungs- are the collective arrangement of the respiratory zone.

the real question is how long will you sit and eat.......\n\nIf it is a duration of three days then it is possible (with potty brakes ect..)  but then back to the table...\n\nthe rest you should ask a doctor and then do what he says....

Longer than most other eatable foods.  For e.g. I know sugar and simple carbs digests first, then fruit, then vegetables, then dairy, fats, then meat (Beef).

"...gastric emptying, ... following a meal usually takes between 2 and 6 hours."  "Digestion and absorption of nutrients within the small intestine are rapid with most of the carbohydrate, protein, and fat being absorbed within 30 minutes after chyme (partially digested food from the stomach) has reached the small intestine."  "the presence of unabsorbed food  in the ileum (lower part of the small intestine) may increase the amount of time material remains in the small intestine and therefore may increase nutrient absorption."  These are direct quotes from the reference source noted below.\n\nFrom this, it seems reasonable to say that food is 'fully digested' 2 1/2 to 6 1/2 hours (or more) after eating.\n\nHope this helps and good luck!

Hi there !\nWhat do you mean by the question ? \nYou expect somebody to describe the "entire digestion" and the "metabolism mechanism" of the Human body in this column ?\nBetter verify the "Book of Physiology by Guyton" or "Chatterjee"..they have given beautiful descriptions ! \nbest wishes !
