koban [17]2 years ago
4 0

Stomach acid helps protease enzymes to destroy harmful microorganisms that may be present in the food. Fats and oils, or lipids, provide insulation and an energy store for our bodies. Helped by bile from the liver, lipase enzymes break down the lipids into fatty acids and glycerol, so they can be stored.
