IAmHim1:Salivary amylase in ptyalin is not the only amylase. Pancreatic amylase is available and more abundant, and most of the starch digestion is done by pancreatic amylase. Besides, salivary amylase has a short contact time with starchy food, so I would not expect much; and as it gets into the stomach when swallowed, it is deactivated by the acidity of gastric juices. |

IAmHim1:You over think things . You should learn to just go with the flow on some issues and stop trying to apply logic or scientific knowledge on every damn thing. Your thinking here is very unnecessary. |

IAmHim1:The classification of all carbohydrates as alkaline and all proteins as acidic is an oversimplification. Carbohydrate grains can be acidic (e.g., pasta, white bread). When you mix alkaline and acidic substances, they can neutralize each other to some extent. However, this is also another oversimplification. The body maintains a tightly regulated pH balance through various mechanisms. |

HeatSeeker:There is no science in what he is saying. Except maybe the part that protein-rich foods are considered acidic. |
