This provides information about nutrient absorption, especially fats, and the functioning of the pancreas.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe pancreas produces the digestive enzyme elastase. In contrast to other protein-splitting enzymes, elastase remains active even after it has passed through the intestines. Therefore, by examining the elastase level in the stool, it can be determined whether the pancreas is functioning adequately.\u003cbr\u003eIf, due to a condition, insufficient enzymes reach the small intestine for proper food digestion, the body may not absorb nutrients well, especially fats.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBile salts are produced in the liver and stored in the gallbladder. After consuming a meal, they are released into the small intestine where they are important for, among other things, breaking down fats. Under normal circumstances, more than 95% of bile salts are reabsorbed in the last part of the small intestine to return to the liver. An excess of bile salts in the intestine stimulates water secretion, which causes diarrhea.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"RPSH","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52760682627418,"sku":null,"price":135.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/store.bloedcheckup.nl\/products\/maldigestie-malabsorptie","provider":"BloedCheckup","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
