Digestion is a necessary part of the absorption process. Food first enters the stomach after you chew and swallow it. The stomach stores the food and liquid you swallow and mixes it with digestive juices that the stomach makes.
The stomach's main function is digestion. It does this by:   Storing the food we eat.  Breaking down the food into a liquidy mixture called  chyme.  Mixing enzymes and s â¦ tomach acids which is are chemicals that  break down food.  Slowly empties a liquidy mixture into the small intestine.     The stomach uses pepsin (enzyme) and peptidase (another enzyme) to  break down proteins in your food. The acid released by the stomach  doesn't break down food it only provides a good environment for the  enzymes to work in.
