Pancreatic Exocrine Insufficiency
Together with symptoms of maldigestion, PEI is associated with nutritional deficiencies leading to osteoporosis, low-trauma fractures, sarcopenia and increased mortality, due to cardiovascular events & chronic pancreatitis, & sometimes may show symptoms of bloating, farting & constipation or diarrhoea.
Together with a poor quality of life, the main consequence of PEI is malnutrition. Deficiencies of fat-soluble vitamins and different proteins, high-density lipoproteins and transferrin and micronutrients like magnesium and zinc are frequently present.
Simple blood tests can show the beginnings of Pancreatic Exocrine Insufficiency by screening for a deficiency of proteins, fat-soluble vitamins, zinc and magnesium.
