Digestive system
- Nutrients its types and needs
Proteins: Hair and nails are mostly made of protein. Your body uses protein to build and repair tissues.
Water: Is an essential nutrient because it is required in amounts that exceed the body's ability to produce it. All biochemical reactions occur in water.
Vitamins and Minerals: Whereas vitamins are organic substances (made by plants or animals), minerals are inorganic elements that come from the soil and water and are absorbed by plants or eaten by animals. Your body needs larger amounts of some minerals, such as calcium, to grow and stay healthy.
Fats: Are a type of nutrient that you get from your diet. It is essential to eat some fats, though it is also harmful to eat too many.
Carbohydrates:They are the most important source of energy for your body. Your digestive system changes carbohydrates into glucose (blood sugar). Your body uses this sugar for energy for your cells, tissues and organs.
Fiber: is a type of carbohydrate that the body can't digest. Fiber cannot be broken down into sugar molecules, and instead it passes through the body undigested.

Regions of the digestive system can be divided into two main parts: the alimentary tract and accessory organs.
The alimentary tract of the digestive system is composed of the mouth, pharynx, esophagus, stomach, small and large intestines, rectum and anus
The salivary glands, liver, gallbladder, and pancreas are not part of the digestive tract, but they have a role in digestive activities and are considered accessory organs.
