An enzyme called amylase breaks down starches (complex carbohydrates) into sugars, which your body can more easily absorb. Saliva also contains an enzyme called lingual lipase, which breaks down fats. A condition known as dry mouth (xerostomia) occurs when you don't have enough saliva in your mouth.
