 \mathbb{ Peristalsis}

↪Peristaltic movement is the movement that refers to the constriction and relaxation of muscles of the esophagus, intestine, and stomach.

↪It is a wave-like structure, which starts in the esophagus when the bolus of food is swallowed.

 \mathbb{Anti - Peristalsis}

↪Anti-peristalsis which is also called as Retroperistalsis, is the reverse of peristalsis movement.

↪It usually occurs as vomiting.

↪Food poisoning, activates the emetic center of the brain which in turn signals a vomiting reflex.

↪Food then moves in the opposite direction, often from the duodenum into the stomach.
