where nutrients, and water are absorbed into the bloodstream
Nutrient absorption is really the ultimate goal when it comes to food and eating, at least from a health standpoint. Granted, we make many of our food choices on the basis of taste â whether we like something or not â but unless the nutrients from the foods we eat are absorbed, our bodies will not function properly. Absorption of nutrients in the small intestine and their delivery into the bloodstream is a complex chemical process.
