Tips on Improving the Health of Your Pancreas

We’ve all heard of the pancreas before, but most of us don’t know its role in our bodily functions or how to watch out for problems. In this article, we’ll explain what the pancreas does and how you can keep it balanced by eating the right food and taking supplements.

What does the pancreas do?

This organ is a gland located in the abdomen, between the stomach and spine. It has two main functions:

• It secretes digestive enzymes into the small intestine. This is its main function and it’s essential for proper digestion, especially of fats and proteins.
• It produces three types of hormones that are secreted into the bloodstream: insulin, which regulates our metabolism and energy, glucagon and somatostatin. These three hormones work to keep blood sugar levels balanced.

Is my pancreas healthy?

Common illnesses associated with the pancreas include pancreatitis, diabetes, cystic fibrosis, and pancreatic cancer. However, long before developing one of these conditions, your pancreas may not be functioning correctly. Here are a few tips to help you determine if you need to pay special attention to this important organ:

• The health of the pancreas can affect your lips, appetite, and taste. If you notice a difference in one of these areas, you’ll need to pay closer attention to your pancreas, especially if you often crave sweet foods or feel full soon after eating only to feel hungry again a short time later.
• Although digestive problems and chronic constipation are sometimes associated with other organs, they can also be a sign that your pancreas isn’t functioning properly.
• If you’re a thin person but have a slightly bulging belly, this could also be another sign of a pancreatic deficiency.

Healthy Foods for the Pancreas

The best way to prevent pancreatic disease, especially if there is a history of it in your family, is to include the healthy foods below in your daily diet. They all help to regulate blood sugar levels, which helps the pancreas do its job much easier.

• Peas: This delicious legume is known as an insulin vegetable. For this reason, you need to add it to your diet.

• Brewer’s yeast: This supplement is essential for your diet. Not only is it good for the pancreas, it also helps regulate the nervous system and is great for the hair, skin, and nails.
• Stevia: This zero-calorie, totally natural sweetener lets us indulge in a healthy way. However, to regulate blood sugar levels, it must be used in its natural state, not refined.
• Cinnamon: This spice, that’s often used along with stevia to treat diabetes, should be a permanent addition to your diet. You can eat it with fruits, yogurts, and all kinds of desserts. It also goes well with meat and other savory dishes.

Emotional Problems

Any natural treatment should take anything that may affect our well-being into consideration. For this reason, we’re going to cover the emotions that are associated with pancreatic health.

People with a pancreatic imbalance often have an obsessive personality with repetitive ideas that can take the form of rituals or mania that the sufferer may not be aware of, but are noticeable to loved ones. These attitudes and habits can block energy that goes to the pancreas.

Besides eating the foods mentioned above, it’s also important to spend time in nature and connect with the wilderness, especially the earth. This can help free you from these repetitive ideas that are blocking your energy.

Don’t hesitate to go outside and walk barefoot and get a little dirty. After a few minutes outdoors in nature, you’ll notice your body relaxing as you experience the serenity of nature. Your pancreas will benefit as a result of this original and enjoyable therapy.
