While it is true that all carbs are eventually broken down
into simple sugars in the end, the speed with which they hit your blood stream matters.
They also function to break down some foods that your body can not absorb by itself (they change
carbs into simple sugars and proteins into the component amino acids).
Released upon impact, the enzymes will convert remaining bacterial and fungal
materials into simple sugars that are harmless to the environment.
The process works like this: The stale baked goods are mixed with fungi, which generate enzymes that break down the carbohydrates in the
food into simple sugars.
Avoid simple sugars like sweet treats but also complex sugars from starch and grains which are broken
down into simple sugars as well.
A gene for the enzyme that splits
starch into simpler sugars has replicated itself in the dog genome, and become more efficient — a sure sign that it is in demand.
When an animal (or human) consumes any type of food, it is broken down
into simple sugars in the digestive tract.
The study is important because lignin — which is critical to the survival of plants in the wild — poses a problem for ethanol production, preventing enzymes from breaking down
cellulose into simple sugars for fermentation.
A digestive enzyme called salivary amylase plays a key role in breaking down starch
into simple sugars so it can be absorbed in the gut.
The sucrose you are adding into the dough is inverted
into simple sugars by an enzyme contained in the yeast (invertase).
Lignin's protective characteristics persist during biofuel processing, where it's a big hindrance, surviving expensive pretreatments designed to remove it and blocking enzymes from breaking down cellulose
into simple sugars for fermentation into bioethanol.
These digestive enzymes include proteases that digest proteins into amino acids, as well as glycoside hydrolases that digest
polysaccharides into simple sugars known as monosaccharides.
Amylase is required to digest carbohydrates
into simple sugars such as glucose, Protease breaks down protein into amino acids, and Lipase is in charge of fat break down.
Sprouting breaks down the starches in
grains into simple sugars so your body can digest them like a vegetable (like a tomato, not a potato).
The sugar, Lactose, is present in breastmilk, and after it enters the body it
breaks into simple sugars: glucose and galactose.
This separates the inulin from the juice, alters the ratio between fructose and glucose, and harmonises the more complex polysaccharides
into simple sugars which have a sweeter taste.
While there continue to be high hopes that biofuels made from plant products like corncobs and switchgrass can help meet our growing energy needs, one major obstacle has been the cost of enzymes which are used to break down these tough plant
parts into simple sugars that can be turned into ethanol.
Bananas are so sweet when they are fully ripe, all of the starches have
turned into simple sugars, they are easier on digestion and in their most perfect form.
Not only do nutrient values get to kick - ass quantities but all the complex starches within
convert into simple sugars, protein is turned into amino acids and crude fat is broken down into free fatty acids (anything simple and free in my books is a winner).
They have managed to solve a problem that has long bedeviled ethanol researchers: how best to split
cellulose into simple sugars that can be fermented into alcohol.
The main sugar in milk is lactose, which can only be absorbed by the gut if broken down
into simpler sugars by the enzyme lactase.
Whatever we eat is digested and broken down into much smaller compounds: proteins into their constituent amino acids, long chain
carbs into simple sugars such as fructose, glucose and galactose and fats into glycerides and fatty acids.
Simple and refined carbohydrates such as white rice, pasta, and potatoes are also broken down
into simple sugar molecules once they hit the small intestine, creating a similar response in the body.
More specifically, it starts to break the carbohydrate chains
down into simple sugars... and this is what we call ripening.
Their study, reported in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, is the first to use biochemical approaches to confirm the hypothesis that microbes in the human gut can digest fiber, breaking it down
into simple sugars in order to ferment them into nutrients that nourish human cells.
