Couscous is primarily composed of carbohydrates, which begin to digest in the mouth as salivary enzymes break down starches. Once it reaches the stomach, gastric acids further break it down, and enzymes continue the process in the small intestine, where nutrients are absorbed into the bloodstream. The fiber in couscous aids digestion by promoting regular bowel movements. Ultimately, any undigested remnants are eliminated through the large intestine.
