The correct answer is: D.  damage to nerves that control the stomach.

The vagus nerve is a cranial nerve that controls stomach contractions and thus, the movement of the food. When the vagus nerve is damaged, the muscles of the stomach do not function properly, so gastroparesis occur. Consequently,  food then moves slowly or even totally stops moving through the digestive tract.

Answer:

Your bloodstream.
