After the food is digested in the stomach, it goes through the passageway and meets the liver, gall bladder and the pancreas; which all secrete enzymes used for breaking down food as well.
Yes, It is part of the digestive system and it produces important enzymes and hormones which help break down foods.
Pancreas
Turkey is digested in the same manner as many other foods. The food enters the system and digestive enzymes break it down and absorb nutrients.
Food is digested in the gastrointestinal tract, starting in the mouth where enzymes begin breaking down carbohydrates. In the stomach, acids and enzymes further break down proteins. The majority of nutrient absorption takes place in the small intestine, where enzymes from the pancreas and bile from the liver help break down fats, proteins, and carbohydrates into molecules that can be absorbed by the body.
No, protein is broken down into amino acids. Simple sugars are only formed when carbohydrates are digested.
Enzymes aid in the break down the large molecules of food products into small ones that are able to be digested (absorbed) by the intestines.
The pancreas produces enzymes that break down nutrients in the digestive system. These enzymes include amylase, lipase, and proteases, which help digest carbohydrates, fats, and proteins, respectively. The pancreas releases these enzymes into the small intestine, where they play a crucial role in nutrient absorption.
