Enzymes are globular proteins that control biological reactions. Digestive enzymes speed up the breakdown (hydrolysis) of food molecules into their âbuilding blockâ components.These reactions occur outside of the cells lining the gut.he main enzyme-producing structures of the human digestive system are the salivary glands, stomach, pancreas, liver and small intestine. Digestive juices and enzymes. Substance digested. Product formed. Saliva. Amylase. Starch. Maltose. Gastric juice. Protease (pepsin) and hydrochloric acid.
Oral digestive enzymes are used when the pancreas is unable to produce enough digestive enzymes. The main digestive enzymes are. 1  proteases for digesting proteins, 2  lipases for digesting fats, and. 3  amylases for digesting carbohydrates.
