enzymes responsible for digestion / where they are produced
Salivary amylase
pepsin
trypsin, chymotrypsin, carboxypeptidase
pancreatic lipase
deoxyribonuclease
ribonuclease
produced in pancreas, breaks bonds in nucleic acids, RNA
produced in pancreas, breaks bonds in nucleic acid , DNA
produced in pancreas, small intestine breaks apart fats
lingual lipase
fat digestion in mouth
gastric lipase
stomach, fat digestion
produced in pancreas, breaks down protein
produced in stomach, protein digestion
produced in mouth, carbohydrate digestion
pancreatic amylase
produced in small intestine, carbohydrate digestion
dextrinase,gluco-amylase, lactase, maltase, sucrase
produced in small intestine, carbohydrate digestion
physiology of each organ
pharynx & esophagus pass food from mouth to stomach : propulsion/swallowing
stomach is temporary storage tank, starts chemical breakdown of digestion
liver : production of bile
gallbladder : storage of bile
pancreas: supplies enzymes needed to digest chyme & bicarbonate to neutralize stomach acid
pancreas : exocrine - secrete pancreatic juice / exocrine - secretion of insulin & glucagon
small intestine : major organ for digestion & absorption
large intestine - absorb water from remaining indigestible food matter, passes useless waste from body
mouth starts by chewing mechanism
patient is not recieving full nutrients, lacking important fats
difficulty digesting fat / indigestion
diarrhea & flatulence
or constipation
liver has nowhere to store bile
fat indigestion
bile is not controlled
bile goes straight into the intestines
probably had gallstones or a disease that caused for removal of gallbladder
possible for intenstinal injury
feeding tubes supplies food & nutrition in liquid forms , which could enhance diarrhea
calcium, B vitamins, omega 3 fatty acids
high fiber foods
increased fruits and veggies
lean meats
low fat and/or fat free foods
