Answer:

Indigestion - Also known as Dyspepsia or Upset  Stomach. It is characterised by apperance of Discomfort in Upper Abdomen. Occurence can be sudden. Indigestion can be determined by apperance of following symptoms; Abdominal pain, Feeling of Fullness(just after you start eating something even in less amount). In some cases Heartburn has also displayed as a classical symptom of Indigestion.

Explanation:

  1. If Kevin consumed a lot of Carbohydrates and Proteins his body will undergo immediately into Metabolism to stimulate and initiate breakdown of Carbohydrates and Proteins from complex to simpler forms.
  2. In the intestine, carbohydrates, proteins, and fats are all broken down into their essential components:
  • Carbohydrates are broken down into sugars.
  • Proteins are broken down into amino acids.
  • Fats are subdivided into fatty acids and glycerol.
  • Carbohydrates are chemically broken down in the small intestine rather than the stomach. The pancreas secretes a juice containing enzymes that assist in the metabolism of carbohydrates, fats, and proteins in food. The pancreas sends digestive juice to the small intestine via ducts, which are small tubes.
  • Therefore, the possible places where the process of Digestion will go wrong will be the SMALL INTESTINES.
