The intestines absorb all of the molecules that are from the broken down/part digested food. The intestines have a massive blood flow through them, so all of these molecules are diffused through the villi (the inside wall of the intestines) and into the bloodstream.

In short, the intestines are what actually gets the nutrients into our blood.
