Pancreatic Enzymes and Hormones

The pancreas produces insulin, somatostatin, gastrin, and glucagon, which are all important for maintaining sugar and salt balance in our bodies. Several major hormones are secreted by the pancreas, including:

Gastrin: This hormone aids digestion by encouraging the creation of acid by specific stomach cells.

Glucagon: Glucagon helps insulin maintain normal blood glucose levels by acting in the opposite direction of insulin. It induces your cells to release glucose, resulting in an increase in blood glucose levels.

Insulin controls blood glucose levels by allowing glucose to be absorbed and used by many of your body's cells. Blood glucose levels drop as a result.

When other pancreatic hormones, such as insulin and glucagon, reach dangerously high levels, somatostatin is released.
