How long does it take to digest and excrete what you eat?

The food eaten can be digested and excreted within 24-72 hours.

The digestion and excretion time of food depends on many factors, including the individual's digestive ability, intestinal health, food type, etc. If the individual's digestive ability is good, the intestinal health is relatively healthy, and the food eaten belongs to the digestible type, such as bread, steamed bread, etc., which enters the stomach and small intestine for digestion and absorption. It can be digested and excreted within 24-36 hours. If the individual's digestive ability is poor, there are chronic enteritis or intestinal polyps and other chronic digestive tract diseases, eating food difficult to digest, such as fried chicken, fat, etc., it takes longer to digest and absorb, may be about 72 hours to complete the digestion and excretion process.
