Your stomach is an organ where digestion of protein begins.
The stomach has three tasks.
- It stores swallowed food.
- It mixes the food with stomach acids.
- Then it sends the mixture on to the small intestine.
Every now and then we experience a tingling stomach pain and low bowel movement that may be caused by poor digestion.
