Pancreatic Enzymes are a group of Digestive Enzymes contained in Pancreatic Juice.

 

Health Benefits of Exogenous, Supplemental Pancreatic Enzymes

Cardiovascular System

 SupplementalPancreatic Enzymes may help to break down the Fibrin that is implicated in the abnormal Blood Clotting that are associated with Thrombosis (due to their constituent Proteolytic Enzymes facilitating the process of Fibrinolysis). 

 

Digestive System

 Supplemental Pancreatic Enzymes may be a useful treatment for Celiac Disease (many Celiac Disease patients produce insufficient quantities of Pancreatic Enzymes).  [1]

 Supplemental Pancreatic Enzymes may be a useful treatment for Crohn's Disease (many Crohn’s Disease patients are deficient in Pancreatic Enzymes).  [2]

 Supplemental Pancreatic Enzymes may be a useful treatment for Indigestion (many people who suffer from Indigestion produce insufficient quantities of Pancreatic Enzymes).  [3]

 Supplemental Pancreatic Enzymes may be beneficial for the treatment of Pancreatic Insufficiency (i.e. insufficient production and secretion of Pancreatic Enzymes).  [4]

 Supplemental Pancreatic Enzymes may be a useful treatment for Pancreatitis.  [5]

 Pancreatic Enzymes may help to prevent the proliferation of Intestinal Parasites and Detrimental Microorganisms within the Small Intestine (due to the Proteolytic Enzyme content of Pancreatic Enzymes).  [6]

 

Immune System

 Supplementary Pancreatic Enzymes may help to prevent (food) Allergies (by facilitating the digestion of the large molecules that are Antigens in the Foods that cause Food Allergies).  [7]

 Pancreatic Enzymes are one of the groups of Enzymes utilized in Enzyme Therapy (i.e. involving multiple Enzymes, especially Proteolytic Enzymes) to break up (degrade) the Immune Complexes that are theorized to cause various Autoimmune Diseases including:
