The Pancreas
The pancreas has a tremendous reserve capacity for the production of some enzymes.
More than 95 percent of the function of the pancreas must be lost before the pancreas fails and symptoms of bloating and poor digestion occur. That’s amazing!!
The pancrease is a gland that makes enzymes for digestion and the hormone insulin that helps control blood sugar levels.
The pancreas is located behind your stomach and in front of your spine.
