They totally are. If blood flow to gut epithelial lining is reduced then you quickly reduce concentration gradients that drive absorptive processes. If blood is not there to carry things away they accumulate
Minor relative to the bigger picture. You get slowed absorption rates from byproduct build up, but the effects are small relative to the changes in physical digestive mechanism.
