Carbohydrate digestion starts with the mastication (chewing of the mouth). There, the salivary amylase begins to break down the carbs into monosaccharides.
Protein digestion begins in the stomach. Pepsin comes into play here and various enzyme proteases do as well
carbohydrate digestion doesn't occur in the stomach and the large intestine.

Carbohydrate digestion begins in the mouth, where saliva and chewing both start to digest those kinds of foods.Mouth, saliva contains the enzyme amylase which breaks down sugars (carbohydrates)
carbohydrate digesting enzymes have an optimum pH near neutrality so is for carbohydrate digestion.
The enzyme produced by the salivary glands that initiates carbohydrate digestion in the mouth is called salivary amylase. It breaks down starches into smaller sugars like maltose and dextrin to begin the process of carbohydrate digestion.
Because saliva contains an enzyme (amalyse) which breaks down carbohydrates into their component sugars.
Carbohydrate digestion starts in the mouth, and later is further digested in the small intestine.

The end product of carbohydrate digestion is mainly glucose together with some fructose, glucose, and galactose. Monosaccharide
