______ contains an enzyme called lingual lipase, which breaks down fats.

🔑Key Points:
-Saliva contains an enzyme called Lingual Lipase, which helps in breaking down fats.
-Our saliva plays a significant role in our digestive system.
-It also contains enzymes like Amylase and Isozyme.
-Amylase breaks down starches (complex carbohydrates) into sugars, which can be absorbed more easily by our body.

🔴Additional Information:
-Saliva is an aqueous fluid found in the oral cavity playing a fundamental role in the preservation and maintenance of oral health. Saliva acts in relation to taste, mastication, bolus formation, enzymatic digestion, and swallowing.
-Enzymes are proteins that help speed up metabolism, or the chemical reactions in our bodies.
-These are some important enzymes needed for our digestion
-Amylase: Produced by mouth (saliva).
-Pepsin: Produced by stomach.
-Trypsin: Produced by pancreas.
-Pancreatic Lipase: Produced by pancreas.
-Deoxyribonuclease and Ribonuclease: Produced by pancreas.
