Poor digestion may lead to malnutrition because in case of poor digestion food will not be converted to usable nutrients.

<h3>What is digestion?</h3>

The breakdown of food in our body into the required nutrients is called digestion. The process of digestion starts to happen in the mouth by the action of saliva.
