How Are Water And Other Fluids Digested In The Human Body?
Ғылым және технология
Water is a simple molecule, so our body does not have to break it into smaller, simpler molecules to digest it. In fact, water molecules are so small that they have no problem diffusing through the cell membrane. This cell membrane consists of small channels or pores through which water and ions, such as sodium, enter the cell, meaning that water is absorbed directly through the epithelial cells that cover the human intestinal tract. In short, it means that the intestines are responsible for absorbing most of the water we consume.
The non-water fluids that we normally consume on the other hand are nothing more than chemicals suspended in water. Fruit juice, for example, consists largely of water and sugar, along with several other ingredients such as preservatives, vitamins, and minerals in small quantities. Sugar is broken down by enzymes in the mouth and small intestine, where it is also absorbed into the body. Vitamins may or may not be broken down but are eventually absorbed in the small intestine; the same applies to minerals.

Yes, thank you. I really have a thought in my mind that does liquid are digested the same as solid? You've answered my question. An understable video and straight to the point

A lot of water is absorbed in stomach, obviously, but I haven't found anything about it on YT. I actually wanted to find out what can be absorbed in stomach, they talk about alcohol in this video, but I've heard of aspirin, and that couldn't be just that... 🤔

As u see in this video water is absorbed by the small intestine tinto the blood stream. Then this blood which contains the water goes to liver and then kidneys. And filteratin happens. What ever we consume whether food or water it goes first to the digestive system and then absorbed to the bloodstream.
I still have a question. How come I can drink lemonade and then follow it right after with chocolate milk and I'm just fine, but when I mix the lemonade with the chocolate milk them drink it my stomach hurts?
When you're constipated trying to "figure it out" -_-

Do you know how long it should take to drink 8 ounces in one sitting? Should I drink an every four minutes until I finish around 30 minutes?
Didn't know the music was gonna be so epic
After so many topic in anatomy’s that I have learned, still I don’t know how water being digested 😅
Wait, how does water process thar causes us to urinate a lot. Show video of water and the urinary tract.
Where does water go after small intestines absorb it? This question is not adequately addressed. Small intestines are not swelling as a result of absorbing huge volume of water every day. *They absorb water into bloodstream.* The water, afterwards, is extracted by kidneys, and passed as urine.
Laying in bed stoned to bajeebus and I go to sip my water and this thought crossed my mind
"of the almost 10 litres of water that enter our stomach every day.." whaaaaaat
No it doesn't, I pee it out as soon as I drink it 😂
Good thing to know I'm good drinking a gallon of coffee a day and it doesn't have to be pure water cause it gets absorbed anyway

That's why I don't eat until after I am drunk. The whole point of drinking alcohol is to get drunk, why would I want it to digest slowly. Let's get this party started!

That's the main question I came here for .... How does the water make its way to the bladder etc ...
If we drink two liters of water per day, and eight more liters are secreted into the stomach, where are those eight extra liters of water coming from?
Found in 9/10 class science books
10 litres a day? 😂
Hol up! When does the chick in the thumbnail drink water and show us how the body digests it ?
10 liters seems ridiculous
I thought sugar and alcohol went to the liver.
Water help
So undrinking water is essentially diarrhea

I asked AI about if drinking water could soften stool that already in the colon, It said: "When you drink water, it doesn’t go directly to the colon. Instead, it’s absorbed into your bloodstream through the walls of your stomach and small intestine. The water in your bloodstream is then transported to various parts of your body, including the colon. In the colon, water can be drawn back out of the stool if your body is dehydrated. So, while drinking water doesn’t directly soften food already in the colon, staying hydrated by drinking plenty of water can help ensure that future stools aren’t as hard or dry. It’s always a good idea to stay hydrated for overall health!" Is that true?

If English is possibly not your first language (& given that the joke is better rendered verbally rather than in writing), the second scientist has drunk H2O2 - Hydrogen Peroxide.

Water isn't digested ya dingus.
It all depends on how the "liquids" are being processed, and which kind of liquid you consume!!! If it is COKA COLA you become an "obese" - american, and if it's pure fruit and vegetable juices, you slim down! They might be digested down , but, are they beneficial or harmless to the body??? It all depends!!!
