How does the length of the small intestine assist digestion? The length ensures that nutrients are absorbed quickly into the bloodstream. The length increases the surface area so that it can better absorb nutrients. The length ensures that enough digestive juices are available to break down food.
The small intestine is a long, highly convoluted tube in the digestive system that absorbs about 90% of the nutrients from the food we eat.It is given the name âsmall intestineâ because it is only 1 inch in diameter, making it less than half the diameter of the large intestine. It measures around 3 feet in length. 2  The ileum is the final section of the small intestine that empties into the large intestine via the ileocecal sphincter. 3  The ileum is about 6 feet long and completes the absorption of nutrients that were missed in the jejunum.
