Avoid fatty foods, fruits, butters and vegetable oils because their digestion stresses the pancreas. Give digestive enzymes with meals, give additional vitamin C complex with bioflavonoids and vitamin E complex. Avoid cold foods; serve foods at room or body temperature. Feed several small meals instead of 1 or 2 large meals, so as not to over stress the pancreas. The pancreas is important in the digestion of fats, and it produces insulin. Animals with chronic pancreatitis can become diabetic as the organ malfunctions.
