On standardized tests, it is often advised that one should eat an energy bar during breaks to get a boost of energy. But does a person really get a boost of energy during the test? Doesn't food take several hours to digest?
Also - is it the small intestines that absorb all the nutrients, including calories? What is a rough estimate of absorption time? And are sugars absorbed within a matter of minutes?
Thanks
