The Important Role of Yoga in the Digestive System
SUMMARY
The mouth, pharynx, gullet (food pipe), stomach, duodenum, and small and
large intestines are the organs that make up this system. According to diet science,
the food we eat should have five different nutrients: carbs, proteins, fats, mineral
salts, and vitamins. The first three ingredients on this list are believed to produce
the energy needed for an individual's daily activities. While one gram of fat is
discovered to provide 9.2 calories of energy, one gram of protein or carbohydrate
provides 4.1 calories of energy. Large
amounts of carbs are obtained through
foods like cereal, potatoes, sugar, etc. In
addition to producing energy, proteins
also play a crucial role in the
development of the body's muscles.
They come in two varieties: animal
proteins, which can be obtained from
animal sources like eggs, meat, fish,
poultry, milk, and so on, and plant
proteins, which can be found in large
amounts in pulses and dry nuts.
CONTENT
The organs forming
this system are: the mouth,
the throat, the gullet (food
pipe), the stomach, the
duodenum, and the small and
large intestines. From the
standpoint of the science of
diet, the food we consume
should enfold five
constituents, namely, carbs,
proteins, fats, mineral salts,
and vitamins. The first three
constituents in this list are intended to yield energy that is essential for the life
activities of an individual. One gram of carbohydrate or protein delivers 4.1
calories of energy, but one gram of fat is discovered to give 9.2 calories of energy.
We gain a significant sum of carbohydrates through grains, potatoes, sugar, etc.
The proteins, in accumulation, to supply energy, fulfill another crucial duty, that of
creating the muscles of the body. They are of two categories, namely, plant
proteins, which are included in high quantities in pulses, and dry nuts, and animal
proteins, which may be established from animal sources, sucheggs, meat, fish,
poultry, milk, and so on. The animal proteins are particularly valuable, and so
vegetarians must contain appropriate quantity of milk in their diet, so as to fulfill
the requirements of animal proteins. The fats can also be gotten from two sources,
namely, plants and animals. Both these are create to have similar energy worth.
But the animal fats, which are present in butter, meat, egg, fish and poultry, are
more important in as far as they are rich in vitamins A and D.
Numerous minerals, such Calcium, Magnesium, Phosphorus, Sodium, Iodine,
Sulphur, etc., are originated in the human body. They serve a crucial function in
managing the biochemical activity going on in the body. Calcium and Phosphorous
are fundamentally required for the correctformation of bones and teeth. Many
illnesses are caused due to deficiencies of various minerals, andconsequently, it is
vital to have them in suitable proportions in one’s diet.
The vitamins, while though needed in very minute amounts, are often found to be
missing in diets. They are taken from fruits, vegetables, milk, etc., and are very
closely concerned with the maintenance of health and vitality of the organism.
Along with these nutrients, water is also needed in huge numbers, because roughly
65% of the weight of our bodyis created by water. The bodyfluids, like saliva, the
blood, the digestive juices, and
endocrine secretions contain
considerable amounts of water.
Water assists in regulating the
bodytemperature within the
normal range.
The mouth is the main organ for
food. The meal is sliced into bits
with the teeth, and is crushed
into finer forms, and is
moistened with saliva, so that it
can be without trouble conveyed
down the throat.
The pharynx is a portion next to the mouth, where seven routes come and
meet: two from the nose, one from the mouth, two from the ears, one traveling
down to the lungs, and one to the stomach. The food masticated and moistened in
the mouth flows through the pharynx, along this last path, made by the gullet or
esophagus, which leads eventually to the stomach.
The food remains in the stomach for roughly
two hours, and becomes mixed with the
Hydrochloric Acid and digestive secretions
generated by the stomach wall. It subsequently goes
to the duodenum which has the shape of an inverted
horse-shoe. Three digestive juices become combined
with it here, namely, the pancreatic juice (secreted
by the glands called pancreas), the bile (made in the
liver), and the juice of the duodenum itself. As a
result of the activity of numerous digestive juices,
the elements of food, mainly the lipids, proteins and
carbs are broken down to simpler compounds which
may be digested in the body.
The tiny intestines which are nearly twenty feet long, are important for
absorption of the digested elements of food. The remaining part proceeds to the
large intestines (almost five feet long), and is ultimately expelled through the anus
after absorbing water from it in the big intestines. The assimilated contents of food
are mostly kept in the liver, and are delivered to the tissues, muscles, and all the
regions of the body, through the agency of blood.
