Pepsin-protein digesting enzyme in the stomach    â¢ pancreatin-an animal-derived enzyme, breaks down protein and fats   â¢ pancrelipase-an animal-derived e â¦ nzyme, breaks down protein, fats, and carbohydrates. Answered. In Carbohydrates and Low-Carb Diets.
Amylase (the enzyme that breaks down starch) is inactivated, or destroyed, when stomach pH falls below 6.5. Before this happens however, up to 50% of starches may be partially broken down. Some fat is emulsified (broken up into smaller pieces) in the stomach by bile acids, and the enzyme lipase, to aid digestion in the small intestine. At the average stomach pH of 2.0, however, most fat is formed into large globules that pass unchanged into the small intestine.
