The Journey of Digested Food: From Absorption to Waste Removal

Once digested food has been absorbed through the walls of the small intestine, it enters the bloodstream and is carried to the liver. The liver processes the nutrients and distributes them to the body's cells. Any excess nutrients are stored in the liver or converted into fat.

The liver is also responsible for removing waste products from the bloodstream, which are then excreted from the body through the urine and feces.
