Digestion and resorption

doc.MUDr.Zdeněk Wilhelm, CSc.
Fyziologický ústav LF MU, Brno

Digestion and resorption play an essential role in the body’s metabolism. Disorders involving one or both of the functions mentioned

above significantly affect the organism as a whole. In the case of disease, they codetermine the further course of the disease both in terms

of providing the total energy needs and in terms of the optimal composition of the substrates ingested in a particular situation. Impaired

function of digestion and resorption should be an indication for nutritional support, both in the form of sipping and in the form of special

enteral feeding. In order to have the expected effect, nutritional support with selected products in the clinical practice must meet the

physiological needs in the setting of impaired digestion and resorption by the gastrointestinal tract.

Keywords: saccharides, lipids, proteins, sipping, enteral feeding
