The main purpose of the stomach is to break down foods with acids and enzymes and then then lining of the stomach absorbs the nutrients your body needs to stay active and alive.

Much of the nutrition is absorbed at specialized parts of the small intestine, and the large intestine has the job of recovering as much water as the body can.
