7. Carbonated drinks and biscuits: Choose alternatives
Carbonated drinks and biscuits are particularly problematic for the pancreas because of their high sugar and additive content. These products can cause peak blood glucose levels, exerting additional pressure on the pancreas. In addition, the high fructose content of many carbonated drinks may be particularly harmful.
Practical tips: It is recommended to replace soft drinks with home-made flavoured water or unsweetened herbal teas. For snacks, choose healthy options such as fresh fruit and nuts. If you want something sweet and crunchy, try making your own biscuits with healthy ingredients like oatmeal and coconut flour, nuts and natural sweeteners.
8. Cow's milk: Explore the alternatives
Cow's milk can be difficult for some people to digest, especially those with lactose intolerance. This can put additional pressure on the pancreas, especially if consumed in large quantities.
Practical advice: Consider alternatives to cow’s milk, such as almond milk or oat milk, which are easier to digest and may be milder for the pancreas. Try to use these milk substitutes in your tea, cereal or cooking recipes. They can offer a unique flavor and additional health benefits.
