Oh wow! It's digestion! Digestion is the wonderful and long process in which the food you consume gets broken down into the energy and nutrients you need to survive. Nutrients are absorbed directly into your body while the waste is just released.

It's both a really strange process and a rather time consuming one too. However, it's vital, and without it we would be in real trouble. From your mouth a Remaining materials of food that cannot be used by your body are released through defacation as waste.

Probably one of my favourite processes. It's always fascinated me.

Same for me too. The way food is used up and made into energy is amazing - the process of digestion is literally a mini processing area within the body.

Digestion is pretty underrated in the way it is called "gross" and so on. I don't think it's gross, I think it's fascinating. Also it's a key process to our survival too! Each step has its own surprises too - from the meal to our waste products.
