Summary
This document discusses carbohydrate absorption across different sites and stages of digestion, including enzymes involved in the process. It details salivary amylase, pancreatic amylase, and intestinal disaccharidases, and how each affects the breaking down of carbohydrates into absorbable forms. The document also touches upon digestive processes in the stomach and small intestine.
