Description
Have you ever wondered why your stomach doesn't digest itself? This is because it produces a new layer of mucus every two weeks, which acts as a protective barrier against the stomach's own digestive acids. Without this mucus layer, the stomach's digestive acids would destroy its own tissues. This amazing function of stomach mucus ensures that your stomach stays healthy and able to digest food.
