Anything absorbed by the small intestine goes into the blood. The small intestine is lined by finger-shaped projections called villi. The villi provide a greatly enlarged surace area for absorption. Each villus contains a network of blood capillaries which absorb most digested food eg sugars, amino acids, vitamins. Water is also absorbed into the blood from the large intestine. http://www.kidshealth.org/parent/general/body_basics/digestive.html http://www.vivo.colostate.edu/hbooks/pathphys/digestion/smallgut/absorb_water.html
