Question

Which among the following helps in digestion faster?

• A. Whole grain bread
• B. White flour
• C. Noodles
• D. Ripe banana

Answer 1

The correct option is A

Whole grain bread

Food with lot of fibres.

Food with lot of fibres and the manner we grind them to smaller ingredients. The fiber in food passes into the intestine and absorbs water. The undigested fibre also helps in pushing waste out of the body. Apart from fibres, the breaking down of our food mechanically is the first phase of digestion. The smaller the particles the easier the food travels down the esophagus. The gastric juice also can work easy and fast on smaller grinded food particles.
