You shift, it growls. You squirm, it roars! Your digestive system is certainly trying to tell you something! But why, and how, does it make those remarkable sounds? Discover what causes those noisy rumbles, what food is made of, how your body breaks it down, why you have cravings, how sight and smell affect what you taste and many more incredible, edible facts to digest. So , what’s eating you? Grab an apple to quiet the roar—then follow the path it takes in your body as it gets converted from food into fuel.
