Depends on the food. Fattier foods will digest longer within about 4 to 5 hours. Non fatty foods or healthier foods will digest faster within 2 to 3 hours.

Now this is a good question, my Dr. said, " if you eat three times a day then it should leave you three times a day" based on that then I would have to say after a regular schedule of this theory, 24 hours. Then that cannot always be true because there are some foods that leave more quickly than that!!!!
