Pancreatic juice primarily acts on carbohydrates, proteins, and fats in the gastrointestinal tract. It contains enzymes such as amylase, which breaks down carbohydrates; proteases like trypsin and chymotrypsin, which digest proteins; and lipase, which breaks down fats. These enzymes facilitate the digestion of these macronutrients, allowing for their absorption in the small intestine.
