Did You Know!
Your Stomach Has a Built-In “Self-Destruct” Defense System
Your stomach produces hydrochloric acid strong enough to dissolve metal, yet it doesn’t digest itself.
Why?
The stomach lining is coated in a thick layer of protective mucus and rapidly regenerating cells. In fact, the entire stomach lining replaces itself roughly every 3–5 days. If this protective barrier weakens, that’s when ulcers can form.
👉 Without this constant regeneration, your stomach would literally digest itself.
