    The document summarizes chemical and physical changes that occur during digestion in the body. In the stomach, hydrochloric acid and enzymes like pepsin break down proteins and carbohydrates in foods into smaller molecules like amino acids and chains. These smaller molecules then move into the small intestine for further digestion. Chewing is a physical change that food undergoes, while mixing with saliva triggers chemical reactions as part of the digestion process.
