Science Main Index. The digestive system is under control of the Autonomic Nervous System (ANS). The ANS controls body process that are not under our conscious control. This means that when we eat food, we don't need to think about how our body will digest it. The Autonomic Nervous System automatically does what needs to be done. The digestive system is also controlled by hormones released by glands in the body. See Glands or Hormones for more detail on these processes.
These and other body actions are controlled by the autonomic nervous system. The autonomic nervous system also has two divisions: the sympathetic division and the parasympathetic division. These two divisions have antagonistic (opposing) effects on the internal organs they innervate (send nerves to = act on).hese and other body actions are controlled by the autonomic nervous system.
