What the chemical digestion of pasta in the mouth and stomach?

Chemical digestion of pasta begins in the mouth, where saliva, containing the enzyme amylase, breaks down starches into simpler sugars. As pasta is chewed and mixed with saliva, this enzymatic action initiates the digestion process. Once the pasta reaches the stomach, gastric juices, including hydrochloric acid and pepsin, further break down proteins, though starch digestion continues primarily in the small intestine. Overall, the chemical digestion of pasta involves both enzymatic and acidic processes that transform it into absorbable nutrients.
