What does the small intestine do in the human body?

The digestion and the absorption of nutrients. You can live without a large intenstine, but not without a small intestine! The small intestine is responsible for most of your food digestion and all of your food absorption. The duodenum is the first section and is about a foot long. It digests all types of food (carbohydrates, proteins, and fats) with the help of pancreatic juices. The duodenum, along with the jejunem and the ileum, absorb the nutrients from the digested food and transfer them into the blood stream. You can live without your stomach, but you cannot live without your small intestines.


Can you live without a large intestine?

Yes, but only with medical support. Individuals who have the large intestine removed, or with an intestinal bypass, may have their ileum directly connected to the colon or rectum, and will not utilize the large intestine (an ileostomy is often used as an intermediate step). Since absorption of nutrients takes place in the small intestine, this allows continued metabolism. However, this condition can lead to dehydration due to lack of water absoption, and deficiencies of some vitamins that are taken in through the large intestine.
