The pancreas is a small yet powerful organ that helps keep your body healthy. It helps digest the food and maintain the body's sugar level. A problem in the pancreas can lead to serious health issues. At Aster CMI Hospital, our pancreas clinic offers treatment for various pancreatic conditions. Our experts believe in providing compassionate care for our patients.
What is the Role of the Pancreas?
The pancreas is the gland behind your stomach. It breaks down your food by releasing digestive enzymes. The pancreas helps control blood sugar by producing insulin and other hormones. When they stop functioning properly, your digestion and sugar balance are affected. It can also lead to various medical problems.
