Description
Ideal for educating pediatric patients about the digestive system, this chart shows a 12-step path of food from bite to “the end of the line,” and includes the role of each major organ in the process. It teaches about teeth, their role in the digestive process, and the right way to brush, and illustrates and describes the components of a healthy diet. The chart includes fun facts (“Borborygmy (Bore-bore-RIG-mee) is a word for the sounds your digestive system makes when it is working!”) and answers to questions like “What is a burp?” and “Why do I throw up?” Bright colors, bold figures, and appealing, anatomically correct illustrations make learning enjoyable.
