BubbletonHi! I'm Bubbleton.
Your gut tour guide.
I'll take you from your mouth to your microbiome, with a few laughs, burps and bubbles along the way. Every fact I share gets checked by a real pharmacist first.
Your stomach's spec sheet
Bubbleton's favorite stop is your stomach, one of the hardest-working organs you've got. Here are the real numbers.
- Acid strength
- pH 1.5 to 3.5 (strong enough to break down a steak)
- Comfy meal size
- About 1 to 1.5 liters
- Time to empty a meal
- About 2 to 4 hours
- Inner lining
- Replaced every few days
- Cleanup waves
- Roughly every 90 to 120 minutes when empty (that's the growl!)
Why a gut mascot?
Gut health gets buried in jargon. Bubbleton makes it simple and a little silly, so you remember it. Why do beans make you toot? Is heartburn really about your heart? Why do you keep eating after you're full? He's got answers.
Bubbleton comes from the pages of From Chew to Phew, written by Isaac Annan, a licensed pharmacist with more than 20 years of experience. Isaac reviews every script for accuracy.
"To fart is human; to laugh about it is divine."
Isaac Annan, RPh
Numbers are typical for healthy adults and vary from person to person.
