It plays a crucial role in the digestion and regulation of blood sugar. The pancreas produces digestive enzymes that break down carbohydrates, proteins, and fats in the small intestine, helping to absorb nutrients. It also produces hormones, such as insulin and glucagon, which regulate blood sugar levels. Disorders of the pancreas can lead to various conditions, including pancreatitis, pancreatic cancer, and diabetes. Treatment for pancreas-related diseases depends on the specific condition and may involve medication, surgery, or lifestyle changes.
