Can you... translate it? š
In what way?
Our saliva is alkaline because carbohydrates are broken down first in the mouth by the enzyme amylase. Proteins are broken down in the stomach, which is why our stomach is acidic. In the intestines, the acid is immediately neutralized to alkalize the ājuicesā so that carbohydrates can be further broken down. Otherwise the enzymes released from the pancreas canāt do their work.
This shows that humans are mostly plant eaters.
Carnivores have acidic saliva because they begin breaking down proteins immediately in their mouths. They are designed to digest nutrient-rich proteins, and so onā¦
Does that help?
