If I asked you to name the most common causes of exocrine pancreatic insufficiency (EPI/PEI), what would you list?

And why?

Food for thought on what medical literature commonly - incorrectly - states as the most common cause of EPI: https://bit.ly/43E9wg5

It’s been interesting talking to people w/exocrine pancreatic insufficiency (EPI/PEI/PI) about what it takes to get updated pancreatic #enzyme replacement therapy (#PERT) prescriptions.

Surprising amount of variance among #healthcare providers, even with #guidelines.

Here’s a guide I wrote for other people with EPI - what would you add to it?

@freemo someone who knows more about this than me #gastroenterologist, #immunologist, #microbiologist could tell you whether a 'sterile' human could survive or even exist. How was the bubble boy fed? Did he receive intravenous nutrition?

Healthy humans carry 1.5 kg of a diverse selection of bacteria in their intestines (the microbiota), which have an important role in maintaining health. A healthy diet maintains a healthy gut microbiome, and we are only just beginning to understand the importance of these bacteria.

It is not only the gut that carries a commensal bacterial load, any body cavity linked to the external environment will carry a non-pathogenic community of bacteria, including the uterus. This means, we are likely to be exposed to placental bacteria in the womb. Once exposed in the womb I don't know how a human would be subsequently 'sterilised' of bacteria.

I stand to be corrected by those with the knowledge!
