The stomach has a pH of 1.5–3.5, and produces the two enzymes pepsin, which breaks proteins into smaller polypeptides, and gastric lipase, which breaks fats into fatty acids and glycerol.
Lo stomaco ha un pH di 1.5-3.5 e produce due enzimi: la pepsina, che scompone le proteine in polipeptidi più piccoli, e la lipasi gastrica, che scompone i grassi in acidi grassi e glicerolo.
