It means something was taken by mouth and went inside the alimentary system. And, by the way, deglutition is the term for swallowing, not ingestion.

Ingestion is eating something.
Are you asking about Indigestion? If that is the case, then that is stomach acid that passes back through the esophagus. It is otherwise known as GERD {gastro-esophageal reflux disease} or acid reflux disease.

ingestion is swallowing something. If you ingest a poison, you swallowed it.
