MORE INFO:
Generally, eating leads to a small rise in body temperature, as our metabolic rate rises to allow food to be digested. As the chemical responses of the digestive process take place inside your body, our temperature will rise. The heat that induces a small rise in body temperature is what generates these chemical reactions.
The digestion of food is a hydrolytic, exothermic, chemical reaction that in the digestive tract releases heat. The body tries to resist the increase in the central body temperature by instigating heat leakage to the atmospheric atmosphere and then passes the heat to the body and wants to raise the body temperature.
