What is Digestion of Carbohydrates about?
Carbohydrates are the primary energy source in the human diet, requiring enzymatic digestion into monosaccharides for absorption. Digestion begins in the mouth with salivary amylase, halts in the stomach due to acidity, and resumes in the small intestine where pancreatic amylase further breaks down starch. Final digestion to monosaccharides occurs at the brush border of the jejunum through specific enzymes like maltase, sucrose, and lactase.
