The smooth muscle layer of the digestive tract is responsible for the peristaltic waves that propel materials from one portion to another.
Peristalsis is a coordinated action of muscles and neurons that are controlled by hormones. Your muscles or neurological system may be to blame for peristalsis issues. They may appear anywhere along your gastrointestinal tract.
The process begins in the esophagus, where powerful waves of smooth muscle transport balls of swallowed food to the stomach. The contraction and relaxation of the food in the esophagus and the food pipe, which forces the food down the track to the stomach, is referred to as the peristaltic movement, also known as peristalsis. This uncontrollable movement is required for food to pass through the stomach and intestines.
