Guts

Synopsis
Presenter Michael Mosley uncovers the secret life of the human digestive tract. Using the latest in medical imagery and a tiny state of the art camera ‘pill’ that he swallows at the start of the film, Mosley takes viewers on a journey through his own internal system. At each stage he talks to medical experts and explains the functions that happen without our conscious effort in a documentary about one of the most fundamental parts of our bodies, controlled by its own nervous system and automatically providing our energy, water and nutrients.
