Digestive disorders / gastrointestinal
The gastrointestinal tract is a long muscular tube that processes food. The digestive system includes the following organs: mouth and salivary glands, stomach, intestine and large intestine, colon, liver and pancreas, and gallbladder.
The p-inflammatory irritation of various sections of the gastrointestinal tract are identified as gastritis (stomach), colitis (colon), ileiti (ileum or small intestine), hepatitis (liver) and cholecystitis (gallbladder).

The intestine has very important functions such as:
break down the foods and filter toxins
protect the body rejecting the foods that can trigger allergies or be toxic by the taste, vomiting, diarrhea
food moves between the different sections.
Food intolerances are often the root causes of digestive problems. Chronic disorders may have their origin in food intolerance. Diets that eliminate certain foods can be a good way to determine the specific intolerance.
