==Brooke: Imagine Jack is a piece of bread. He is a very nutritious, whole grain piece. When someone takes a bite of him, where does he go? How does the body absorb and use the nutrients like the carbs? == ==Jack: When the bread enters the mouth, the teeth grind together to chew up the food. This is by choice. You need to chew it so that is fits down the esophagus and the stomach can digest it. ==

Brooke: Yes.
==Jack: Oh well. The cells in the stomach are specially designed to cope with these acids. Cells in the esophagus are not. When stomach acid gets into the esophagus it actually starts to digest it. ==


==Jack: The small intestine's job is to break down food even more so that you can absorb all the nutrients like vitamins, minerals, proteins, carbs and fats. ==
