שיתעכל המזון שבמעיו. כל זמן שאינו רעב מחמת אותה האכילה הוא סימן שלא נתעכל המזון. ודוקא בשכח אמרי בית הלל דאינו חוזר, אבל במזיד דברי הכל יחזור למקומו ויברך:

Mishnayos Berachos Perek 8 Mishnah 8
ברכות פרק ח׳ משנה ח׳
Bartenura
מברך על היין ואחר כך מברך על המזון – Since [the recitation of] ברכת המזון/The Blessing after the Meal does not require a cup [of wine]. But the School of Hillel holds that ברכת המזון requires a cup.
עונין אמן אחר ישראל המברך – And even though he did not hear the mention of The (God’s) Name other than at the end of the blessing, since it is assumed that towards Heaven, he recited a blessing.
אלא אם כן שמע כל הברכה – lest he (i.e., the Cuthean) recited a blessing towards Mount Gerizim.
מברך על היין ואחר כך מברך על המזון. שאין ברכת המזון טעונה כוס. וב״ה סברי ברכת המזון טעונה כוס:
עונין אמן אחר ישראל המברך. ואף על פי שלא שמע הזכרת השם אלא סוף הברכה דמסתמא לשמים ברך:
אלא אם כן שמע כל הברכה. שמא ברך להר גריזים:

In 1934, the Kozoglover Gaon, Rav Aryeh Tzvi Frommer, who took over from Rav Meir Shapiro (the founder of Daf Yomi) as the head of Yeshivas Chachmei Lublin, initiated the Mishnah Yomi cycle, focusing on Seder Zeraim and Seder Taharos. After World War II, in 1947, Rav Yonah Sztencl, a disciple of Rav Frommer, expanded the program, advocating for a comprehensive study of Shishah Sidrei Mishnah. The idea of studying two Mishnayos daily gained the support of figures like Rav Isser Zalman Meltzer, the Tchebiner Rov, and the Gerer Rebbe, marking the formal inception of Mishnah Yomi.

שיתעכל המזון שבמעיו – As long as he is not hungry on account of that meal, it is a sign that the food was not consumed in his stomach.
