  • Illustration of the human digestive system. Caption: Then the remains of the food, which is now pretty much waste,

    The human body needs to take in food and water found in the environment, and through a sequence of mechanical and chemical processes, it converts that food into nutrients that sustain all the body's activities. The digestive tract alone has nine major organs devoted to this process, and the renal tract has three. Join Dr. Mark Reisman as he provides you with a look at the anatomy and physiology of the many organs and structures of digestion. Lastly, explores the properties of metabolism and nutrition.
