The attack of acute pancreatitis is often inseparable from eating, it is not too much to say that it is eating out of the disease, so what foods can cause acute pancreatitis? 1, alcohol is listed in various studies as one of the most common causes of acute pancreatitis, the harm is undoubtedly. The mechanisms that cause acute pancreatitis include: promoting the secretion of pancreatic fluid, when the pancreatic duct is poorly drained is caused by increased pressure in the pancreatic duct, resulting in damage to the pancreatic vesicles; in addition, alcohol and its metabolic generation of reactive oxygen radicals can also directly damage the pancreatic vesicles. 2, fats, red meat, eggs, dairy A recent large cohort study found that such foods can increase the incidence of gallstone acute pancreatitis, due to the saturated fatty acids and cholesterol contained in such foods. 3, high glycemic load diet In a large sample study in 2014, it was found that such diets can increase the incidence of non-stone acute pancreatitis. 4, cod, cod roe Related studies have found that acute pancreatitis due to such foods may be associated with increased IgE levels leading to metabolic reactions. 5, potatoes, mustard There are a few reports that the mechanism of pathogenesis is not clear. 6, fruit See here, I’m sure you will be surprised. Studies have found that bananas and kiwis can cause acute pancreatitis. The level of IgE is elevated in these patients, and some patients also have other allergic diseases such as allergic rhinitis and bronchial asthma. It is suggested that allergic reactions may be the pathogenesis. In summary, in addition to alcohol and fatty foods that can directly damage the pancreas to develop acute pancreatitis, many foods cause acute pancreatitis through allergic reactions due to the allergens they contain. In addition, studies have found that vegetables, vitamin D, and dietary fiber can reduce the incidence of gallstone acute pancreatitis.
