Foods that are good and bad for your Pancreas

 I wanted to post this because it is such an important topic. Keeping our pancreas healthy is (or should be) a Priority. 


Our Pancreas is a very important organ. It plays a crucial role in both digestion and regulating blood sugar levels by producing hormones like insulin, which is vital for overall health and properly bodily function. Without a functioning pancreas, managing blood sugar levels becomes extremely difficult and can lead to diabetes. 


Food plays a major role in keeping your pancreas healthy. And I have compiled a list of good and bad foods for your pancreas. 



Foods that Nourish the Pancreas: 


  • Garlic
  • Spinach
  • Broccoli
  • Sweet Potatoes
  • Mushrooms (Preferably Reishi)
  • Lemons 
  • Grapes
  • Blueberries
  •  Yogurt (non dairy)
  • Horseradish
  • Oregano
  • Nuts & Seeds (Limit if you have heart problems)
  • Turmeric
  • Omega 3 (Salmon) Pumpkin seeds, Avocado
  • Pretty much all fruits and vegetables
  • Beans, Legumes
  • Whole grains
  • Green tea

Foods that are bad for the Pancreas:

  • Processed meats (lunch meat, hot dogs, bacon, sausage, etc)
  • Fried Foods
  • Refined carbs (anything white.....sugar, flour, cereal, pastries and even soda)
  • Alcohol (in excess)
  • High fat dairy (or any dairy for that matter)
  • Artificial sweeteners
  • Trans fats
  • Red meat
  • Chips

*** Also maintaining or getting at your optimal weight, exercising on a daily basis (Keep active!), Avoid stress as much as is possible, getting out in fresh air.
