The presence of luminal nutrients after a meal increases gastrointestinal blood flow in a phenomenon called postprandial hyperemia. In many conditions related to splanchnic hypoperfusion, enteral nutrition may play a role in counterbalancing the installed splanchnic low-flow state by producing intestinal hyperemia. However, when the gut is hypoperfused there is a chance of enteral nutrition producing a mismatch of the oxygen demand: supply ratio with subsequence gut ischemia. This article aims to review the effects of macronutrients on gastrointestinal blood flow in both health and critical conditions, especially those related to hepatosplanchnic hypoperfusion.
