its digested in the body to form simple sugars, i think.
Starch or carbohydrate is quite incapable of absorption until it has been rendered soluble, and this is effected by the action of saliva, which converts it first into dextrin and subsequently into maltose.
On reaching the stomach this digestion of the starch by saliva still goes on until it has been neutralised by the outflow of gastric juice in from half to three-quarters of an hour, and then the protein is attacked by the pepsin and hydrochloric acid. Gastric juice is only able to digest proteins, and in about two hours and a half a slice of bread is ready to leave the stomach.
The various digestive fluids of the intestine soon complete the digestion of the starch and protein and the small quantity of fat contained in bread, and then absorption into the blood takes place.

∙ 10y agoPhysical and chemical digestion begins in the mouth with the teeth and tongue, and the addition of saliva to the food. The stomach breaks down the food into simpler substances, which are treated with bile from the liver and pancreatic fluid when it reaches the small intestine. The hairlike villi there carry the nutrients into the bloodstream. Bacteria in the large intestine release some nutrients, along with vitamins, that are absorbed along with water. The colon (end of the large intestine) serves as the last stop in fluid reclamation before wastes are excreted through the anus.

∙ 12y agoThough making bread is thought to be a simple process. The chemical process that transforms a few basic ingredients into wholesome bread is anything but simple. The exact relationship between these compounds is not fully understood. What is even more amazing is the intricate process of the body to digest it. See Psalm 104:24.

The pancreas will also secrete its amylase and eventually the bread will get broken down into mono and disaccharides and absorbed through the walls of the small intestine.
