The digestive enzymes assist in digestion and absorption of nutrients in the small intestine. In the process of digestion, the salivary gland produces saliva in the mouth which digests the starch in food to make food soluble and smooth. Pancreas secrete insulin, glucagon and pancreatic juice. The pancreatic enzymes help in digestion of protein, fat and carbohydrates present in the food. Liver produces bile salts which breakdown lipids to fatty acids.
