GI / LIVER / NUTRITION
YEAR 2 | PAGE 23E - MOTILITY, DIGESTION / ABSORPTION + NUTRITION PHYSIOLOGY
BUILD THE NORMAL GI MODEL BEFORE THE DISEASE LIST
Organize normal function as MOTILITY / SECRETION -> DIGESTION -> ABSORPTION -> PORTAL / LYMPHATIC TRANSPORT -> HEPATIC PROCESSING. For every nutrient, predict what happens when acid, pancreatic enzymes, bile, mucosa or transporters fail.

| 3. | GI Motility of the Large Intestine - Ninja Nerd | deep concept | Haustral contractions, mass movements, gastrocolic reflex and neural control; connect colonic physiology to diarrhea/constipation patterns. | Open → |
| 4. | Digestion & Absorption of Carbohydrates - Ninja Nerd | deep concept | Amylases, brush-border enzymes, SGLT1/GLUT5/GLUT2 and clinical consequences of carbohydrate malabsorption. | Open → |
| 5. | Digestion & Absorption of Proteins - Ninja Nerd | deep concept | Pepsin, pancreatic proteases, enterokinase/trypsin activation and amino-acid/peptide transport into portal blood. | Open → |
| 6. | Digestion & Absorption of Lipids - Ninja Nerd | deep concept | Bile salts, pancreatic lipase/colipase, micelles, chylomicrons and enterohepatic circulation - core for steatorrhea and fat-soluble vitamin questions. | Open → |
A. DEEP GI PHYSIOLOGY + NUTRITION VIDEOS - DIRECT & PLAYABLE — GI / NUTRITION CLOSED-BOOK CHECK
- Rebuild the sequence from ingestion -> gastric processing -> pancreatic/biliary secretion -> intestinal digestion/absorption -> portal/lymph transport.
- Predict the nutrient/lab deficiency produced by gastric, pancreatic, biliary, ileal or diffuse mucosal failure.
- Distinguish osmotic vs secretory diarrhea, maldigestion vs malabsorption, and fat/carbohydrate/protein consequences from mechanism.
- Keep vitamins and micronutrients integrated with disease context, not as an isolated memorization list. VIDEO-FIRST | SCHOOL-EXAM + BOARD-EXAM MASTERY
