Where does digestion of food begin

It starts in the mouth. You start to chew in which the glands that produce saliva make it easier to send down the esophagus

The digestive process starts in your mouth when you chew. Your salivary glands make saliva, a digestive juice, which moistens food so it moves more easily through your esophagus into your stomach. Saliva also has an enzyme that begins to break down starches in your food.
