When you eat mashed potatoes, they are broken down by chewing and mixed with saliva, which begins the digestion process. Enzymes in your saliva and stomach further break down the carbohydrates and other nutrients in the potatoes. As they are digested, they are absorbed into your bloodstream, where they provide energy and nutrients to your body. Ultimately, they contribute to the body's various biochemical processes and can be transformed into glucose for energy or stored as glycogen.
