Detailed explanation-1: -The pancreas makes enzymes that help digest proteins, fats, and carbs. It also makes a substance that neutralizes stomach acid. These enzymes and bile travel through special pathways (called ducts) into the small intestine, where they help to break down food. The liver also helps process nutrients in the bloodstream.
Detailed explanation-2: -The liver and pancreas are organs in the upper abdomen. The liver is vital for metabolism, detoxification, digestion, and more. The pancreas produces essential enzymes and hormones. Together, they help maintain healthy blood glucose levels and other functions.
Detailed explanation-3: -The pancreas is really the enzyme “powerhouse” of digestion. It produces the most important digestive enzymes, which are those that break down carbohydrates, proteins and fats.
