✨ Overview
The intestines are the primary organs of digestion and nutrient absorption, consisting of the small intestine and large intestine (colon). They break down food, extract nutrients, absorb water, and eliminate waste. The intestines also host a vast microbiome, which plays a critical role in immune function, metabolism, and overall health, making them central to both digestion and systemic wellness.
