After food is broken down in the stomach, the real work begins. In this episode of The Vitality Check, Dr. Sean, Kevin, and Jason dive into the small intestine, the body’s primary hub for nutrient absorption. This conversation explores how proteins, fats, and carbohydrates are absorbed, how the nervous system and biomechanics influence intestinal function, and why the gut–brain connection plays such a powerful role in overall health.

The team also unpacks the importance of the microbiome, the psychosomatic relationship of the small intestine, and how chronic stress, lifestyle patterns, and emotional load can disrupt absorption and vitality.
