RFK Jr.’s New Food Pyramid

[IroNat]

"People with chronic pancreatitis often lose weight, even when their appetite and eating habits are normal. The weight loss occurs because the body does not secrete enough pancreatic enzymes to digest food, so nutrients are not absorbed normally. Poor digestion leads to malnutrition due to excretion of fat in the stool."

This must be what Bhanky has.

Thanks bro. However, they tested if I lacked that enzyme and I didn't. Even before testing I tried pancreatic enzymes to see if they helped in any way, which is what they prescribe if you lack the enzymes. I didn't notice any effects from it, though my bowels have have worked normally the whole time with no apparent problems with digestion. Some bodybuilders use these enzymes feeling they help digestion when eating a ton. Cost a lot out of pocket if pharma grade, would have gotten them for free if I'd lacked the enzyme.

Spot on loco.....exactly what I`m going through after my Pancreatic Cancer surgery..........ufortun ately.   

I have to take an expensive Pancreatic Enzyme called Creon after each meal or snack, as I no longer digest fats well due to no longer having a Gall Bladder or Bile Duct and a small portion of my Pancreas left.

I`m devestated by this of course,but I will return to working out soon......I don`t quit  easily !!

You got lucky Van....thank God......I would only wish the Hell I`ve been through on a guy named Hanky.

I have to take an expensive Pancreatic hormone called Creon after each meal or snack, as I no longer digest fats well due to no longer having a Gall Bladder or Bile Duct and a small portion of my Pancreas left.

That's the product I tried, too expensive if there's no big benefit to me. Supp companies have these enzymes for sale too and some bodybuilders are big into different digestive enzymes. I got my gallbladder removed too but I haven't had any digestion issues from it so far.

Medicare and Medicade covers mine or I`d be fucked...real expensive stuff !!
