How might I break down bread into glucose in a model of the human digestive system? I need to make a model of the digestive system. It would be really nice to actually show it in action, such as by breaking down bread into glucose or something similar. Is this feasible with a small budget and non-dangerous chemicals? If so, how? This should be as similar too the real digestive system as possible.

Amylase would be worth a try. The enzyme breaks down bread (starch), and you can buy it relatively cheaply online or probably at a chemist. Amylase is secreted in your saliva and in your stomach, so it would be most realistic if it was added in your model at those two points.
