The small intestine mucosa feeds the nutrients, medications, and unfortunately some "bad" foreign substances when we imbibe them into our bloodstream. The substances are then sent throughout the body where they are needed (or not, such as alcohol, cigarette smoke, etc.). This is not the only mucosa capable of doing this. The tongue and mouth and nasal mucosa can absorb medication and send it to the bloodstream.

Mucosa.
Ileal mucosa refers to the inner lining of the ileum, which is the final section of the small intestine located before the large intestine. It plays a crucial role in nutrient absorption and immune function. The ileal mucosa has specialized structures, such as villi and microvilli, that increase its surface area for efficient absorption of nutrients.
