<u>Stomach</u> is the part of the GI tract does not actively participate in the digestion of carbohydrates.

Carbohydrates are first mechanically and chemically broken down in the mouth. Mastication, another term for chewing, breaks down the meals high in carbohydrates into ever-tinier bits. Saliva that covers the food particles is produced by salivary glands in the mouth cavity. Salivary amylase is an enzyme found in saliva.

Dietary carbohydrates are converted to glucose, fructose, and/or galactose in the small intestine and then absorbed into the blood. The breakdown and absorption of dietary carbohydrates can be influenced by a variety of factors.
