It's even more ridiculous. Food rots when it is broken down by bacteria. Guess what's in your colon and intestines? Bacteria which breaks down food that didn't yet get broken down upstream. The purpose of these organs is to rot food. All food rots in your colon.
Oh ffs. It is not. Rotting is a different process to digestion.
Acid breaks it down, the bacteria processes it more, and it eventually begins to ferment.
The difference is in the types of bacteria. https://fermenterskitchen.com/difference-fermenting-and-rotting/
That is fascinating. You're correct, there is a clear difference. I'll have to look into this. There are acids that break down from plant matter that will damage your esophagus and gi tract. There are also foods that create noxious fumes from the same in the lower gi.
I wonder if this term is used in distinct senses.
Exactly.
I mean , to clarify ,
Nobody wants pounds of matter in their system sitting around in some fold, whether it be "digesting" or not.
I would think we already have the science to back up this claim.
The type of food not being digested is another story.
