The glands in the stomach lining produce stomach acid and an enzyme that digests protein. Pancreas. The pancreas produces a juice containing several enzymes thatbreak down carbohydrates, fats, and proteins in food. The pancreas deliversdigestive juice to the small intestine through small tubes called ducts.
