When most proteins, fats, and carbohydrates are digested completely, they are converted to the end products that are soluble and can easily pass through cell membranes.

Lipids do not dissolve as easily as carbohydrates and proteins. Carbohydrates and proteins are readily absorbed by the digestive system and provide the top sources of energy. The lipids tend to clog up the blood and should be avoided.

All food contains complex substances such as carbohydrates, proteins and fats. The body cannot utilise these substances in their complex form. The food consumed is broken down into simpler substances by a procedss called digestion. The digested food can be easily absorbed by the body.
Because a steak does your body no good directly. However by breaking down (digesting) the food to the basic components like amino acids, then your body absorbs the essential nutrients and leaves the rest in the digestive tract.
Carbohydrates are more easily digested than protein.
There is a theory that not combining carbohydrates and protein is healthy. Carbohydrates and vegetables or meat and vegetables are both good combinations and can be more easily digested.
Proteins are absorbed primarily as amino acids. These acids are water soluble and easily absorbed by the body via active transport.
Food should be digested well so that the important nutrients inside food can be more easily absorbed.
