Gastric juice is released in stomach when food is entered in stomach. This juice is comprised of::

These components digests different component of food that we eat. In stomach mainly the protein content of what we eat digests. Pepsin is present in its inactive form called pepsinogen but as the acid released in stomach, it gets back to active form and start digestion of proteins.
