Pancreatitis is serious problem. The name is a
medical term for inflammation of the
pancreas, which is an elongated organ about 4 - 6 inches in length in the upper abdomen, surrounded by the stomach and
the small
intestine. The pancreas has two main functions in the human
body. It produces digestive enzymes that are released into the small
intestine, and it produces two hormones, insulin and glucagon, that
are released into the bloodstream to regulate blood sugar levels.
Enzymes are delivered from the pancreas to the intestines by means of
the same duct used to transport bile from the gallbladder.
Pancreatitis can result if there is a gallstone blocking this passage.
It can also be a result of damage to the pancreas from alcohol
consumption. In either case, digestive enzymes become trapped in
the pancreas and can actually begin to digest the tissues there,
causing inflammation. Some enzymes may ooze out and find their way
into the bloodstream and/or the abdominal cavity Symptoms of
pancreatitis include upper abdominal pain and tenderness, back
pain, nausea, vomiting, fever, and distention of the abdomen.
Blood tests may show elevated levels of pancreatic enzymes, and the
red blood cell count may be affected as well. Pancreatitis may be
complicated by liver problems, with jaundice,
as well as kidney failure. If the damage is severe enough, the
pancreas can become infected, a potentially life-threatening
situation, and pockets of fluid may form.

You would not think of exposing yourself to an Atomic Bomb fallout or
excessive X-rays. But not getting enough vitamins and minerals is just as
dangerous. Cells in your body not getting their vitamins and minerals suffer
both DNA and mitochondrial damage. These cells under a microscope look like they
have been hit with radiation. This type of damage may cause you to age faster
and can lead to Cancer
and other degenerative diseases like Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, and
others.
