The Digestive System and Digestion

So that our body can make the most of the food we eat, it must first transform it into a simpler substance called nutrients. These nutrients are then transported by our blood around our body to be used and converted into energy. This food transformation process is called digestion and is done by the digestive system.

The digestive system is a very long tube threw which food travels and is made up of the following parts: the mouth (which is where the digestion begins), the pharynx (which also belongs to the respiratory system), the esophagus, the stomach, the small intestine and the large intestine.

This is an educational video dedicated to preschool and primary children were they will learn about the journey our food takes along our body.

Happy Learning, education through entertainment.
