WHY DOES OUR STOMACH RUMBLE

if some time has passed since our most recent meal,the stomach is empty or, to be more precise, it contains ony gastric juices and swallowed air.the otherwise silent,slow and regular contractions of the stomach walls become stronger and produce a gurgling sound.however these hunger contractions subside as soon as we eat something.the intestines can produce similar noises when food pulp and gas it contains are being moved steadily down its length.....ps see the gelatin capsule on the pic....ignore it
