Small intestine. 

Secretions of the liver and pancreas mixes with food. Pancreatic enzymes make it alkaline. Bile salt breaks the fat present in the form of large globules into smaller ones, increasing the efficiency of enzyme action. Enzymes like trypsin digest proteins and lipase break down fats. Intestinal juice converts proteins to amino acids, complex carbohydrate to glucose and fat into fatty acids and glycerol.
