Digestion: Body

This is a high strength acid digestion bomb with a 23 mL, A255AC PTFE cup and cover in a strong outer body which can be made either of stainless steel or nickel. The 4746 stainless bomb is intended for use with nitric, sulfuric or other oxidizing acids, offering best resistance to any acid vapors which might migrate through the PTFE cup under high pressures. The 4747 bomb with a nickel body is to be used with HCI, HF and other reducing acids. Working pressures up to 5000 psi and temperatures to 275°C can be handled in the 4746 stainless bomb, but pressures in the 4747 nickel bomb must be limited to 3000 psi due to the lower physical strength of nickel. The 4746 stainless bomb has a safety rupture disc that will release through a passage in the bottom of the bomb. The nickel bomb does not have a blow- out passage since reactions with reducing acids are not potentially explosive.

The carbohydrate, protein, and fat are then further broken down to metabolites, byproducts of digestion, which can be absorbed through the intestine into the blood stream to the liver cells. There, they can be used for various body functions. Water, vitamins, and minerals from food are ... absorbed here. In fact, the majority of nutrient absorption takes place in the upper portion of the small intestine.

The 4748 bomb is the largest of all Parr acid digestion bombs. It has a 125 mL, removable PTFE cup in a stainless steel body with six cap screws in the screw cap to seal the flanged PTFE cup. An expandable wave spring maintains continuous pressure on the seal during the cooling cycle when PTFE parts might otherwise relax and leak. Stirring can be provided with a magnetic stir bar.

More importantly, when food is not digested, it is broken down by fermentation rather than digestion. This produces gases which are both noisy and uncomfortable. Worse, the gases are absorbed by other tissues of the body which become both toxic and spastic. So, excess vata is muscularly and neurologically harmful.

Ayurveda teaches that good digestion leads to good health and poor digestion can bring disease. Each mind/body type digests differently. It is important to understand your mind/body type and how it digests food when planning your meals.

The digestion process winds its way through quite a few organs like your liver and pancreas before it reaches the significant stage for biochemical discussions, the small intestine. Here is where the broken up components are taken up by the body and brought through the blood supply to where they're needed. They'll be synthesized into larger molecules again to serve the body's processes, completing the digestion cycle and moving into metabolism.
