No nutrients would be able to feed the cells. Water would not be able to enter body tissues. Death would be fairly quick, if it was possible to start life, at all.

How the circulatory system work without the digestive system?
The Circulatory System works with the Digstive System in several ways. One of them being that the digestive system breaks down food to get the nutrients, where it is then sent to the ileum (small intestine) to be absorbed by the villi that cover the walls of the ileum. In the villi there is a capillary that absorbs the nutrients into the lood stream and the blood then distributes these nutrients (or energy) around the body because of the pumping action of the heart. Hope this helps a bit :)

What if your digestive system wasn't there?
As our body works now, we would surely die without our digestive system! It is through our digestive system that we get the nutrients for all of the basic functions of our body. Without these nutrients would not be able to grow, move, repair damaged tissue or even breathe! However, I'd like to think humans could evolve some other way to get energy and nutrients to grow.... Maybe photosynthesis?? :)

How long can the human body live without the digestive system?
The digestive system not only allows the body to digest food, but also allows the body to replenish its water supply. You would die of dehydration faster than you would die of hunger. Dehydration does not happen at a fixed speed because it depends upon a number of things, such as how hot are you are how much do you therefore perspire, but a general estimate would be that you might last a week. Yet, it is still possible to live without a digestive system. If you had a carefully formulated nutritive fluid that was delivered intravenously, directly into your blood, then you would be able to do without eating or drinking. It would not be very enjoyable, but you could survive.

The small intestine is a very vital part of the digestive tract and the body in general, so life without it would be quite difficult.
