When experiencing acute pancreatitis, complete fasting is essential to allow the pancreas to rest and recover. Once the inflammation is under control, the patient can gradually return to eating with an easily digestible diet. However, it is necessary to avoid foods that may stimulate the pancreas, as mentioned in the article below.

The pancreas is an important organ that secretes enzymes essential for digestion. The presence of pancreatic stones not only obstructs the excretory ducts of these enzymes but also causes pancreatitis. This is a dangerous complication that can lead to multiple organ failure or, in some cases, be life-threatening if not detected early and treated promptly.
