Malabsorption is a general term for a variety of conditions that affect your ability to absorb nutrients from your diet. Malabsorption can lead to digestive disorders and even malnutrition, not because of a lack of nutrients, but because of an inability to absorb them.
You can think of digestion as a three-part process. The first part is breaking down the food into digestible pieces. The second part is getting all the nutrients from the food. And the third part is to get rid of the waste that remains after you have absorbed all the good things.
