Pancrea LF is a complete pancreatic support formula with New Zealand lyophilized glandular and ethno-botanicals that may support healthy pancreatic causal chain function.
The pancreas aids in digestion by producing enzymes that digest several types of nutrients, including proteins, fats, carbohydrates, and nucleic acid (a common acid that acts as a building block in DNA and is essential for all living things. Lipase works with bile from the liver to break down fat molecules so they can be absorbed and used by the body. Proteases break down proteins. They may help keep the intestine free of parasites like bacteria, yeast, and protozoa. Amylase breaks down carbohydrates into sugars, which are more easily absorbed by the body. This enzyme is also found in saliva. Pancreatin 8X contains eight times the enzyme activity of pancreatin USP.
Most of the pancreas is composed of cells that produce digestive enzymes. These cells are arranged in clusters that are connected to a series of small ducts. Pancreatic enzymes and juices flow from the cells and minor ducts into the central pancreatic duct, leading to the duodenum. The pancreas also contains small islands of hormone-producing cells called the Islets of Langerhans, which secrete insulin and glucagon, along with somatostatin hormones that primarily regulate blood sugar metabolism.
