Abstract in brief

  • This study compared how the stomach, pancreas, and bile respond to two types of meals: a solid-liquid meal and a homogenized meal of the same ingredients, finding that solid meals triggered stronger and faster initial gastric secretions but emptied more slowly than the homogenized meals, leading to prolonged pancreatic and biliary responses.
  • The responses varied in pattern and magnitude, with solid meals causing higher gastric acid and volume, and their slower emptying rates resulting in more extended stimulation of digestive organs.
  • The physical appearance and form of the meals (solid vs. homogenized) significantly influenced early digestive responses, suggesting that the body's reaction to typical solid-liquid meals might be different from responses to liquid test meals often used in experiments.]

Ps. The myth that it dilutes stomach acid has been debunked a number of times. One of a few studies: https://t.co/ToAl2YhDvk Here’s a good breakdown of why it’s a myth: https://t.co/3Qq41Zkj7F

Breaking down nutrition myths part-2 drinking water with meals does not dilutes stomach acid & affect digestion. this assumes the digestive system can’t adjust its secretions based on meal consistency, which isn’t true.

@xaxexuxo Hello, that point is not fully supported yet by researches. Maybe verified dietitians and nutritionist can explain and verify further how it truly works in the body system. Stumbled upon this article which is interesting to learn about this topic : https://t.co/mgOV5c3elp

@Nymne Vad jag har förstått så är det svårt att dra några slutsatser om matsmältningen påverkas av dricka till maten. Här är en studie som tex visar att att matsmältningen kom igång fortare med flytande mat https://t.co/ewFGuRDHEb
