No it shouldn't. The salivary glands and pancreas and liver produce saliva, acid, and bile respectively. The reason you get "heartburn" is because acid from the stomach is being pushed into the esophagus so no, it does not produce digestive enzymes.

The esophagus does not produce any enzymes. Even so, sometimes digestive enzymes produced in the stomach can make their way into the esophagus due to a hernia or a condition called gastroesophagic reflux.
In grasshoppers, the structures that secrete enzymes into the digestive tract are primarily the salivary glands and the gastric caeca. The salivary glands produce digestive enzymes that are mixed with food during ingestion. The gastric caeca, which are finger-like projections extending from the midgut, also secrete enzymes that aid in the breakdown of food, enhancing nutrient absorption. These structures together facilitate effective digestion in the grasshopper.
There are actually three organs that secrete digestive substances into the small intestine to help digest proteins, carbohydrates and fats. These organs are: - the liver - the pancreas - the gallbladder
dead organic material. they secrete digestive enzymes then absorb the nutrients.
The salivary glands, stomach, pancreas, and small intestine all secrete various digestive enzymes to help break down food components like carbohydrates, lipids, and proteins. These enzymes play a crucial role in the digestion and absorption of nutrients in the body.
The esophagus does not produce any enzymes. Even so, sometimes digestive enzymes produced in the stomach can make their way into the esophagus due to a hernia or a condition called gastroesophagic reflux.
Acinar cells secrete digestive enzymes that break down food in the digestive process. Islets of Langerhans, on the other hand, secrete hormones like insulin and glucagon that regulate blood sugar levels in the body.
Fungal-like protists, such as slime molds, function similarly to fungi in that they secrete digestive enzymes to break down organic matter in their surroundings. Once the enzymes break down the food, the protists absorb the nutrients through their cell membranes for energy and growth. This process is essential for their survival and reproduction.
