Why do fatty foods take longer to digest than sweets?

Biology
1 answer:
o-na [289]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Fat actually slows down digestion, so if the meal is higher in fat (whether it's healthy or unhealthy fats) it will take longer to digest. Unlike sweets, which is just sugar.

Explanation:

Really high-fibre meals take a bit longer to digest, as well, as the fibre is bulking everything out and slowing the transit time down.

Sweets, such as candy, crackers, and pastries, are among the fastest foods digested. Gender: A 1980s study found that the transit time through the large intestine alone was 47 hours for women and just 33 hours for men.
