How Long Does it take sugar to digest?

it all depends on what kind of sugar.  Sucrose, fructose, lactose, glucose, and what other ones you can think of all digest at different speeds.  I don't know what they are.  I've heard that high fructose corn syrup is hard to digest (and by the way, that's in lots of candy and soda and stuff).

It's not true, gum is made up of both digestible sugars and indigestible carbohydrates called gums.\n\nThe indigestible part of chewing gum is passed through your body, just like fiber would be.\nThere also is no time lapse in the digestion process.  It goes through your body at the same pace as everything else.\n\nYou would be fine if you swallowed your gum!

Glucose is a simple sugar: a monosaccharide. Cellulose however is a poly saccharide: a chain of many monomers. We do not posess the enzymes required to break down those chains into monomers, thus we cannot digest it. We can break down other carbohydrates into smaller digestible fragments, but not cellulose.

Nothing, it's your digestive system digesting your food.

The digestive system is one great part of your body: it mushes and mixes up food, it makes chemicals to break the food down so your body can use the nutrients, it filters out dangerous substances, and it even lets your body get rid of leftover waste! Keep your digestive system in good shape by eating lots of healthy foods and drinking water. Greasy or fatty foods (like fast food, for example) can be difficult to digest, so try to eat these foods in moderation (this means eating them only every so often, and not eating a lot at one time). \n\nYou can also keep things moving along by eating fruits, veggies, and breads and cereals with bran - these help those solids bulk up in the large intestine so you can move them on out. When you take care of your digestive system, it will do you right! \n\nThis mainly depends on a individuals body. It takes about 1-2 hours for food to reach the small intestine, then another 2 to 6 hours to pass through to the colon,  it takes food anywhere from 3 to 8 hours to reach it, depending on the person's diet. The food is then moved into the rectum and expelled.

Try drinking a bottle of water and waiting about 15 mins.  Lots of times our bodies are actually only thirsty, but trick us into thinking we are hungry, especially when craving sweets.

I figure that it takes a full day for food to pass from the mouth to the, er... toilet. I heard the statistic somewhere that you have approximately 15 metres of gastrointestinal tract. therefore, food travels at an average speed of 15 metres a day (0.625metres/hr or 62.5cm per hour). For those of you working in imperial measures, that's about 2 feet per hour. \n\nMy answer is based on an adult who has one bowel movement per day at regular intervals

i remember my sister telling me about this but it realli depends on wat u eat meat takes longer to break down and the quantity that u eat the more u eat the more it takes to digest i think sorry i cant help u on this but i think that may give u a little clue right

no.it takes at least 30days to get it out of your system unless you go to a nutrition store and buy some stuff,i don't know the name of it ,but they will help you.

Time takes to dissovle same amount of sugar(sugar cubes and powdered) in water.  \nKeep the mass and temperature of the water constant and do not stir the solution.  Since powdered sugar has more surface area, it will dissolve faster.

The quickest absorption will be of the 2-glucose "polymer."  That way, every cut by the enzyme yields two glucoses.  With any other chain length, each cut would yield one glucose until the last cut, which would yield 2.\n\nAnything wrong with amalyse?

Cellulose is not digested by the human intestine. It is fiber. It provides bulk and helps push the mass through.

that's so weird, we're doing something similar in my bio class...\n\nI would agree with you....glucose should be broken down faster...perhaps theres some error in ur results.\n\nI did the same experiment...and I had glucose produce a little more CO2 than sucrose.

all the time, when ever there is glucose to be processed into ATP

Normal fasting level for blood sugar has been considered to be between 70 and 100.\n\nNormal, around 125 by 2 hours after a meal.\n\nSome sources have said they believe nerve damage begins to occur at a blood sugar level of 135 or more.  So I don't take 160 as being "good" -- not two hours after a meal.

The enzyme breaks down the sucrose into glucose and fructose
