above, your body cannot use a “protein” structure. Therefore, part of your
digestive process will break these structures down into their simplest form—
into amino acids, the basic building blocks or material that your body uses to
build its own protein structures. Amino acids are used to make repairs, to
create new structures, to enhance immune response, to act as transporters and
to serve a multitude of other purposes.

IN THE STOMACH VIA GASTRIC JUICES —
HCL (hydrochloric acid) causes the conversion of pepsinogens to pepsin,
which breaks down complex protein structures to proteoses and peptones.
IN THE PANCREAS — Pancreatic enzymes trypsin and chymotrypsin
