Digestion, Nutrition & Safety

Food takes a long hidden journey once it enters your mouth. A body is less than seven feet tall and yet food takes a journey of many feet. Find out how long this journey takes, and the twists, turns and squeezes along the way. What does that carrot look like when it finishes its roller coaster ride. The Digestion and Nutrition Unit follows the SMART (Science Management and Resource Tool) from NAD. The entire guide can be downloaded from CIRCLE. This is Cycle 2, Strand 3, Health.
