deathrey Posted Tuesday at 04:51 PM Posted Tuesday at 04:51 PM As this is now the Westlife FF, I recently saw on the news that one of the members of Westlife had some botched gastric band surgery and had to have his whole stomach removed. I had no idea a human could live without a stomach Quote

I had no idea a human could live without a stomach I remember there being a big story in the news about ten years ago about a woman who was served a cocktail with liquid nitrogen in it and it destroyed her stomach.

I had no idea a human could live without a stomach I had to search this and learnt that as the small intestine grabs all the nutrients you can essentially live on tiny well chewed up bits of food. Doesn't sound very fun to put it lightly. I could see it being a small plot point in a Black Mirror where because of all the weight loss drugs humans no longer have stomachs. Quote

Yeah I searched it too, fascinating stuff. You can't eat and drink at the same time because your small intestine can't handle it. You have to chew your food thoroughly because there are no stomach acids to break it down and you can only have small snack like meals Quote
