When food leaves the stomach and enters the small intestine, the pancreas secretes digestive enzymes to help break down carbohydrates, proteins, and fats. The liver produces bile, which helps in the digestion and absorption of fats in the small intestine. The gallbladder stores and releases bile into the small intestine when needed.

When nutrients leave the stomach in what order do they move through the small intestine?

When food leaves the stomach it first goes through the small intestine. It goes in the same order as it leaves the stomach. The first part of the small intestine is called the duodenum. It changes the digestive fluid from the acidic fluid of the stomach to alkaline. After that it goes through the rest of the small intestine. Nutrients that have become small enough are absorbed by the small intestine through small projections or villi. Food that leaves the small intestine goes into the large intestine. There bacteria digests part of it and makes part of it available for the human. The food part then passes through the very thin large intestine wall. The food digested in the small and large intestines go from there to the liver.
