How do nutrients from food enter the circulatory system?

Answer:

Using the network of arteries, veins, and capillaries, blood carries carbon dioxide to the lungs (for exhalation) and picks up oxygen. From the small intestine, the blood gathers food nutrients and delivers them to every cell.

Hope this helps.

Nutrients are transported throughout the body in blood through capillaries.
