So then the food enters the small intestine
Diameter¡¯s less than the large intestine
The first twenty-five (cm) is the duodenum
The rest is the ileum and jejunum

From the stomach comes the acid chyme
Carb digestion continues at this time
Proteins, nucleic acids, and fats are digested
Hopefully you¡¯ve ate something and haven¡¯t just fasted

There are these little things to absorb the nutrients
They suck things up like some elephants
It¡¯s full of finger-like projections called villi
It¡¯s fractal-like, made of smaller microvilli

These microvilli are covered with brush border
Enzymes: maltase, sucrase and lactose in that order
All of these are acting on disaccharides
All of these are producing monosaccharides

Villi have lacteals that absorb digested fat
It goes straight into the lymphatic system, that
will drain into the circulatory
system, and then the rest is history

The intestinal glands produce enterokinase
Trypsinogen to trypsin, a wonderful kinase
Tight junctions are used to hold cells together
Making sure there is no leakage whatsoever

Chylomicron, a huge lipoprotein particle
Moves lipids to adipose tissue, oh how radical
Released into lacteals, created by absorptive cell
Secreted into the bloodstream, isn¡¯t that just swell?
