enzymes
Nutrients are substances that are absorbed by the body through the process of digestion.
The original substances are transformed during a chemical reaction a new substance (compound) is obtained.
Neutralize chemical reactions during digestion
Minerals
Enzymes are protein-based substances that enhance digestion by acting as biological catalysts, making chemical reactions more likely to happen. They speed up the breakdown of large molecules into smaller, more easily absorbable components during the digestion process, promoting efficient nutrient absorption.

amylase
A single chemical that breaks down into other substances during chemical reactions is "decomposing".
The initial substances in a chemical reaction are called reactants.
The Liver.
A change in which one or more new substances are formed is called a chemical change or chemical reaction. During this process, the original substances undergo a transformation that alters their chemical composition, resulting in the creation of new substances with distinct properties. Examples include combustion, rusting, and digestion. Unlike physical changes, which do not create new substances, chemical changes often involve energy transfer and irreversible processes.
