Our digestive sytsem or gastrointestinal sytsem sustains us. It provides us with the nutrients we need and regulates how our body works in terms of us being able to thrive. I got a better understanding of how constipation occurs. The large intestines is where water gets absorbed from the bolus which passes through it. If this bolus stays there for too long too much water is absorbed and it becomes harder to pass. I also learned that people who have a higher intake of red meats, among other things are at a higher risk for developing colon cancer. Another thing was appendicitis. Although the appendix has no use it can become a fatal part of the body. If it becomes filled with fecal matter, which would then cause it to become swollen and inflamed and it ruptures it could be fatal. Once symptoms are noticed such as lower right abdominal pain and nausea one should go see their doctor immediately.
