After the break down of food by the stomach and the mouth. Majority of food is absorbed in the small intestines after the stomach. While the large intestines do absorb nutrients its main function is the reabsorption of water before defection. Some molecules can be directly absorbed into the bloodstream in the stomach by their composition and the amount of blood supply to the stomach itself for example alcohol.
