What is gastroparesis? Gastroparesis, also called delayed gastric emptying, is a disorder that slows or stops the movement of food from the stomach to the small intestine. Normally, the muscles of the stomach, which are controlled by the vagus nerve, contract to break up food and move it through the gastrointestinal (GI) tract.
Stomach Emptying Time. Complete stomach emptying can take up to five hours, Dr. Richard Bowen of Colorado State University explains. Digestion begins in the mouth, where your teeth break up large food particles and enzymes in saliva start to break it down.
