Digestive Health 消化健康
Digestive health refers to the health of the digestive system. The digestive system is responsible for breaking down food, and converting it into nutrients and energy for the body. Food begins its journey in the mouth down into the esophagus and into the stomach. The food is further broken down and absorbed in the small intestine. Water is absorbed in the large intestine and waste products are changed into stool before it exits the body through the rectum. When the digestive tract does not run smoothly or the immune system detects abnormality, there can be various digestive disorders. These disorders include, but are not limited to, irritable bowel disease, GERD, cancer, gallstones, constipation, and diarrhea.
消化健康是指消化系統的健康狀況。消化系統負責分解食物,並將其轉化為人體所需的營養和能量。食物從嘴巴進入食道,然後進入胃部。接著食物在小腸中進行進一步的分解和吸收。大腸會吸收掉食物中的水份,最後食物殘渣形成糞便並通過直腸排出體外。當消化道運行不暢或免疫系統檢測到異常時,即有可能出現各種消化系統疾病。這些疾病有且不限於腸易激綜合徵,胃食道逆流疾病,癌症,膽結石,便秘和腹瀉。
