Any one? How long does it take for these calories to absorb?

Digestion does in fact start in your mouth, with your saliva breaking down the food etc.

Absorbing the nutrients and calories is a different story. That one doesn't start in your mouth. It starts after swallowing.

So idk how long it will take, really. Some people would be able to purge these even after eating them an hour before, some people wouldn't be able to do it even after 30 minutes or so, really depends on the person's digestive system. Both of the cases are worse than each other tbh

Mmm I love apples with almond butter
Idk how long it take to absorb but I have no problem with purging apple

apples are fiberous and almond butter is primarily fat, so i imagine the two are probably slower to digest than other things like simple sugars and liquids

i am fine with purging them but it also takes me like 5 seconds to puke anything bc my stomach is so fucked soooo make of that what u will
