The enzyme that digests starts is known as amylase. Carbohydrate enzymes are also known for the breakdown of starts into sugar.
amylase is the protein that digests starches.
amylase
Amylase is the enzyme that digests starch.
Specific
It does not digest starch faster. The saliva produced before the meal will have a longer time to prepare.
Amylase helps the body digesting starch. Different types of amylase (alpha, beta...) can split different types of starch into sugar units.
Starch is the polysaccharide which is broken down into glucose by the body in a series of stages. Amylase digests starch into maltose (a disaccharide). Maltase is the enzyme which breaks maltose into glucose.

Amylase digests starch
AMYLASE
Starch doesn't digest saliva. The enzyme in saliva digests starch.
Specific
The enzyme that breaks down starch is called amylase

the enzyme sucrase
Amylase helps the break down of starch into sugars (disaccharides). Amylase itself is not broken down. It is an enzyme and it doesn't enter into the reaction in any way. The disaccharide that is formed is sucrose, maltose or lactose.
it contains enzyme amylase which digests starch,and a lubricant which makes food slippery and easy to swallow
