Carbohydrate digestion begins in the mouth, where enzymes in saliva, particularly salivary amylase, start breaking down starches into simpler sugars. This process continues in the stomach, although it is less active due to the acidic environment. The majority of carbohydrate digestion occurs in the small intestine, where pancreatic amylase and other enzymes further break down carbohydrates into monosaccharides for absorption.
