What Is Your Stomach Saying When It “Talks”?

February 24, 2020 by Karen Hill

You usually have your meals at the same time each day. Your stomach becomes accustomed to this schedule and produces its acids and enzymes with a churning activity according to that schedule.

With no food going into your stomach to absorb these juices produced by the peristaltic waves, it “talks,” or “gurgles,” or “rumbles.”
