Stomach acid breaks down proteins into base amino acids.
And eat however much protein you want to reach your macros.

Protein is made structurally of four calories.
Said protein is broken down by stomach acid, which afterwords is broken down further by about 2k+ grams of bacteria that we live in harmony with.
The bacteria eat the calories much like a worm and poop out a brownish paste that is raw nutrients ranging from amino acids to every vitamin and mineral we use.
Different bacteria eat different foods and develop different nutrients in their paste.
The paste (and what pieces of food that are not digested, namely fiber) are than pushed into the small intestine a little at a time.
The small intestine is the actually part of the body that absorbs most nutrients, beyond that there are only a handful of body parts that are niche in the absorbing process (skin cells for vitamin d, tongue can absorb sugars into the blood stream, etc).
The small intestine than says I'm done with this portion and moves it to the large intestine that also does very minor absorption, but in reality is just compacting the paste into the poop we know. The small intestine than opens up again and grabs a little more paste.
Various cells pass by the small intestine and act as carriers. Either directly gathering nutrients and moving them to blood cells, nerves, etc or releasing them directly into the blood stream for the entire body to grab as needed.

Nice answer. Very informative.
So what do you think about how much grams of protein the body can absorb?
I read somewhere in a magazine that only 40 grams can be absorbed at one time.

calories are a unit of energy m8
