Ingested objects refer to items that are consumed and enter the digestive system. This can include food, beverages, and non-food items that are accidentally or intentionally swallowed. The body processes these objects through various stages, including digestion and absorption, to extract nutrients and energy. In some cases, ingesting non-food items, known as pica, can lead to health complications. Common examples of ingested objects include fruits, vegetables, and meat, which provide essential nutrients. However, ingesting harmful objects, such as toxic substances or sharp items, can pose serious health risks and may require medical attention.
