The duration of stay of food getting ingested by our GI system depends on the food we eat. Generally, it takes around 24-72 hours for food to get digested and move through the various organs of the digestive tract. Not only the type of food but also the amount of food we take depends on the duration of digestion. While sugary food can be digested completely in just matter of few hours, within a day, non-vegetarian items like meat and fish can take even 48 hours to get fully digested due to the complexity of the protein, fat and other essential vitamins and minerals they have in them.
For food to get emptied from a stomach, it normally takes 2-5 hours. The next organ that food enters is the small intestine and it takes around 2-6 hours for the food to get emptied from the small intestine. Large intestine is the next organ the food enters. It takes close to 10-72 hours for the food to get emptied from the colon. The large difference in timing is once again based on the food we eat. Normally, fibrous food like fruits and veggies move through the entire gut or digestive tract in 24 hours. In this process, they help the digestive system to keep up their health and be more efficient.
