The lining of the digestive tract prevents acid from burning through the tissue of your stomach... The contents of the stomach are acidic enough to dissolve a razor blade.
To prevent the stomach "wall" from from being digested, it is protected by a layer of alkaline mucus.
The cells of stomach lining are replaced at a rate of half a million each minute,
so that the stomach effectively has a new layer every 3 days!
Good Luck!
