Abstrakt: Chapter 61 of the book "Nutrition in Pediatrics: Basic Science & Clinical Applications" is presented. It examines carbohydrate absorption and malabsorption. Nutrient assimilation is the term used to refer to the process of digestion and absorption. Carbohydrate assimilation is different from protein and fat assimilation in that undigested saccharides undergo colonic fermentation by the microbiota that colonizes the distal bowel and colon. The consequences of carbohydrate malabsorption are mentioned.
