What is "pancreas"?
The pancreas is a gland located in the abdomen, behind the stomach. It serves both digestive and endocrine functions in the body. As a digestive gland, the pancreas produces enzymes that help break down carbohydrates, proteins, and fats in the small intestine. These enzymes aid in the digestion and absorption of nutrients from food. Additionally, the pancreas produces hormones, including insulin and glucagon, which regulate blood sugar levels and play a critical role in metabolism. The pancreas is an essential organ for maintaining proper digestion and glucose regulation in the body.
