Gut in the human body:

  1. The gut is another term for the gastrointestinal tract.
  2. The portions of the alimentary canal, particularly the stomach and the intestines (sometimes including the anus, especially in animals that eliminate wastes through the anus, in contrast to other animals that excrete waste through the mouth or by other means)
  3. The hollow organs that make up the gastrointestinal tract (GI tract) include the mouth, stomach, esophagus, small intestine, and large intestine which contains the rectum and anus.
