Insufficient stomach acid can cause absorption of partially
digested food molecules, which can lead to food intolerances or alleriges.

A fungus (plural fungi) is a eukaryotic organism that
digests its
food externally and absorbs the nutrient
molecules into its cells.
Animals store extra
digested food in the form of adipose tissue, which contains
molecules called lipids.

Food Research International, reveals the
molecules released when real samples of bread and pasta are
digested, providing new information for research into gluten sensitivity.

digest food - like
molecules that trick the body into absorbing them.

Many things can affect this barrier and, when it is compromised in any way, it can let in
food molecules that are not properly
digested.
