What is the maximum amount of food that can fit in the stomach?

(/)

About 4 liters. Shaped similar to the letter J, the stomach is an elastic organ. When empty, it has a volume of just 50 milliliters. But if you eat nonstop, it can increase its capacity by 80 times, the equivalent of stuffing 3 or 4 liters of food. If the person insists on continuing to ingest food beyond this volume, he may end up vomiting. Here you can see the “translation” of this capacity in fast food snacks:

2 Big Macs + 2 500 ml soft drinks + 2 large fries + 2 500 ml milk shakes = 4 liters
