Enzyme that break down fatty acids are called lipases.

Bile is a substance made in our liver which contains salts that breaks down fat into smaller droplets.

The pancreas also contains a substance called pancreatic juice which contains numerous enzymes that work to break down things such as fat, protein and starch.
