Proteases are enzymes that digest proteins. Examples of proteases that are used in the human body include Pepsin (an enzyme in the stomach), and Trypsin (an enzyme in the small intestine) which digest proteins into amino acids, or polypeptide chains composed of amino acids.

Lipase is the enzyme that digests stains containing fats. Lipases are produced by our pancreas and are responsible for breaking down fats into smaller components that can be easily absorbed by the body.
The liver secretes bile which helps in fat absorption.
No it is not a hormone or an enzyme. It is a type of molecules
How tilapia fish digests crude fat
Fat digests almost twice as fast as protein. Because protein is typically hard to digest, it takes longer for the stomach acid to dissolve it than any other types of food.
Usually, but not necessarily. Protein itself digests quite easily, whereas fat can be difficult to process. A very lean beef can be just as easy to digest as chicken.
Bile does NOT digest fats. It is NOT an enzyme, therefore, it cannot break down lipid molecules into smaller nutrients. What bile does is it HELPS enzyms to digest fats by emulsifying the fat molecules. This means the surface area is increased, thus enuring a more efficient and quicker digestion of the lipid molecules. This process takes place at the top of the small intestine, in the duodenum, as this is where bile is secreted from the gallbladder, through the bile duct and onto the food.
your body digests protein because it is an important nutrient for staying healthy. Just as it digests fat and carbohydrates
Bile from the Gallbladder is used to digest fat. The function of bile is to break down fat into small droplets, whose surface area is greater than the surface area of the original. The fat is then acted upon by an enzyme, or biological catalyst, called lipase.
generally food containing transfats takes 3-4 days to digest...it is a bad type a fat
The nutrients found in milk are digested by many different enzymes. Lipase acts on the fat molecules, while proteases break down protein. The main carbohydrate in milk is lactose, which is digested using the enzymes lactase.
