What foods can and can not be taken with pancreatitis?
Inflammation of the pancreas can lead to very serious consequences, and can be accompanied by swelling, necrosis with suppuration. With an acute form of the disease, a lethal outcome is quite possible. Of paramount importance in the treatment of pancreatitis is a special diet, from which the patient's state of health depends completely. Properly constructed limited nutrition contributes to the improvement not only of the patient's condition, but also has a curative effect on the organs of the digestive system.
What harms the pancreas?
Alcohol is a product that has the strongest negative effect on the pancreas. It simply destroys this organ, provoking an active production of enzymes, which destroy it. In fact, iron itself "eats", and in the shortest possible time. The occurrence of serious diseases of the digestive organs( in most cases) is caused precisely by the excessive use of alcohol-containing beverages.
Excessively sharp and salty foods have on the pancreas the same effects as alcohol. They must be completely excluded from the diet, they can not be eaten with pancreatitis. In addition, dishes with high fat content and significant iron content are strictly prohibited. Especially it concerns any canned variations.
Use of these products is contraindicated in inflammation pancreas:
- fat milk;
- fizzy and sweet drinks;
- fish and meat of fatty varieties;
- carbonated sweet drinks;
- baking and baking, including cakes;
- smoked products of all kinds.
Not everyone is able to adhere to a strict diet, even if it is a deadly disease. Products listed above, doctors do not recommend eating, however, when a person is not able to resist, you can make some adjustments to the diet. The patient should understand that they concern exclusively pancreatitis in the stage of persistent remission.
You can indulge yourself, but, as they say, carefully! The above products can be eaten no more often than once a month, and only with persistent remission( mentioned above).This rule should remain in the memory of every patient with pancreatitis. In addition, use should not be excessive, so it is very important to consult with your doctor before taking your favorite food.

- fish and meat soups made from fatty components;
- lamb and beef fat;
- spicy dishes;

- canned food, sausages and smoked products;
- some harmful condiments, spices and, of course, salt.
In addition, fresh vegetables should not include such vegetables as:

In chronic pancreatitis, to exclude from the diet of the above products are fully as professionals, do not say, because it can trigger the development of a host of other diseases. In any case, it is important to consult with your doctor and pay attention to the reaction of your own body. If there is an intolerance to the body of any constituents, for example lactose, all products containing it are not included in the list.
When consuming bakery products, it is important to dry them. For this you can use a toaster. If you really want meat or fish, you can properly prepare them( the network presents a lot of recipes), and enjoy, but only in a very limited amount. Such products are selected especially carefully when they are purchased. The presence of fat on pieces of meat and fish is excluded. But in this case, the fatty grades are left without attention.
Since even with acute pancreatitis only mineral water is not able to fully replenish the reserves of trace elements, minerals and vitamins lost during the complete elimination of food intake, it will not be able to do without it. Many patients emphasize that the same pork after steaming, is digested much better than beef. But again, the whole diet is calculated depending on the doctor's recommendations, and you can rely only on your own feelings.
