Chymous

/ˈkaɪməs/ adjective

Definition

Relating to or containing chyme, which is the semi-liquid mixture of partially digested food that moves from the stomach into the small intestine.

Etymology

From Greek 'chymos' meaning juice or fluid. The term evolved in medical and biological sciences to describe the specific digestive state of food as it leaves the stomach.

Kelly Says

The word captures a moment in your body that happens thousands of times but you'll never see—that moment when your stomach's churning transforms a sandwich into a soupy slurry ready for the next stage of digestion.
