Digestion begins in the mouth, because there are certain bacteria in the mouth.
The preservatives keep you from being able to do what you normally do when chewing. So, the food goes into your body in a state not ready for digestion, and it still possesses chemicals as it continues into your system. In the stomach, other bacteria that are brought forth for the breakdown of food come to attack the food. However, they are unable to attack it successfully, because of the chemicals. The beneficial bacteria are unable to function properly, so there is a waste that begins to accumulate in the body.
