Best Answer

if you want to be more technical:

When you chew a Ham sandwich the teeth grind down the ham and the bread, the saliva breaks down the carbohydrates, using an enzyme called amaylase, in the bread, reducing them to maltose, as well as lubricating the food making its transtion down the throat easier.

When the food reaches the stomach(lumen) it is churned in the stomach acid, and the cheese is digested by an enzyme called pepsin.

When the pepsin has broken down the cheese in to poly-peptides the remainder of the food is passed down to the duodenum (also classed as the lumen), i think its under the stomach. Then in the duodenum the pancreas egests some more amaylase to breakdown the remainder of the carbohydrates, protases to breakdown the polypeptides into tripeptides and dipeptides, peptidases for the tripeptides and dipeptides into amino acids, and lipase for the butter to break it down into monogylcerides and fatty acids.

Then its passed to the intestines where the remaining sugars from the carbohydrates are broken down into glucose. then all the nutrients and stuff are absorbed and the waste comes outta ya.

Hardest food for a human to digest?

There are a few top contenders, but it is suspected that the hardest food for a human to digest is bread. In order to digest food, enzymes are needed, which are secreted by the pancreas. Because bread has no naturally occurring enzymes (unlike a lot of other food) the pancreas has to work exceptionally hard, producing extra enzymes to break down the bread. Other food products that are hard to digest include pork, beans, broccoli and whole-milk hard cheese.
