The clinical decisions made every day by dietitians are based in evidence and science. This means that dietitians need to have a comprehensive understanding of how foods are digested and nutrients are absorbed, distributed, metabolized, and excreted from the body in order to make optimal nutrition recommendations. This video focuses on the basics of carbohydrate digestion and absorption through the human gastrointestinal tract and includes discussion of how a patient's anatomy and physiology can impact their enteral nutrition support needs.
