Answer is: water acts as a reactant.
Food is broken in series of reactions called catabolism. Catabolism is the group of metabolic pathways that breaks down molecules of food (for example polysaccharides, lipids, proteins) into smaller units that are either oxidized to release energy or used in other anabolic reactions.
Water is used to brake bonds between large molecules.
