How are fats digested in our bodies? Where does this process take place?

Fats are present in the intestine in the form of large globules which makes it difficult for enzymes to act on them. Bile salts break them down into smaller globules increasing the efficiency of enzyme action. The pancreas secretes pancreatic juice which contains enzymes like trypsin for digesting proteins and lipase for breaking down emulsified fats. The fat is finally broken into fatty acids and glycerol.

The digestion of fats take place in small intestine.
