Gut motility refers to the movement of food and other substances from the mouth, through the esophagus, stomach , small intestine , to the colon and out of the body.* Some conditions that affect the muscles and nerves of your gastrointestinal (GI) tract can cause you to have dysmotility. Dysmotility is when your GI tract doesn't move food through your digestive system the way it should.
