Digestive and Metabolic Functions

1. Saliva and Stomach Acid

Saliva: Lubricates food for swallowing, moistens the mouth, and contains the enzyme Salivary Amylase (Ptyalin) which begins the digestion of carbohydrates (starches).
HCl (Hydrochloric Acid): Maintains an acidic pH (1.5–3.5) in the stomach to activate pepsinogen into pepsin (for protein digestion) and kills ingested bacteria/microbes.

2. Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR)

BMR: The minimum amount of energy (calories) required by the body to maintain
