Production of Digestive Juices The glands that act first are in the mouth--the salivary glands. Saliva produced by these glands contains an enzyme that begins to digest the starch from food into smaller molecules. The next set of digestive glands is in the stomach lining.They produce stomach acid and an enzyme that digests protein.n the mouth, stomach, and small intestine, the mucosa contains tiny glands that produce juices to help digest food. There are also two solid digestive organs, the liver and the pancreas, which produce juices that reach the intestine through small tubes.
Salivary Amylase. Amylase, an enzyme that turns complex starches into simple sugars, is the most prevalent digestive juice in saliva. Your pancreas also produces amylase, but starch digestion begins in the mouth with salivary amylase.When you bite into a piece of bread, the serous component of saliva carries the salivary amylase into the food's porous structure as you chew.hewing your food thoroughly breaks it into smaller pieces, making more of its surface area accessible to digestive juices. Saliva is an integral part of that digestive process, supplying enzymes that dismantle starches and fats.
