how long does it take for liquid to go through your system
Large chunks of meat could stay in your stomach for 2 or 3 days, where plant based food usually is gone in a number of hours. If you need to get cleaned out for a colonoscopy, they put you on a liquid diet for 3 days to get all of the solids out of your system. know that if you go for a barium meal/stomach examination, you are told to fast for 12 hours before-your stomach should be empty after 12 hours. If not then that indicates a problem. The time for the food to get through your bowels, I'm not too sure.
