creon help

<br>We were told that Creon 6 digests 6 grams of fat. A Creon 12 digests 12 grams of fat. So for someone who produces no enzymes of their own, they will need one Creon 6 for every 6 grams of fat consumed.There are basically 3 different kinds of Enzymes that are produced. One kind digests fat, the other two digest proteins and carbohydrates. The reason we are not concerned with anything but the fat content is that the Enzyme capsules come from pigs which have a completely different diet. The pig diet has much less fat than the human diet so pig pancreases produce a much lower level of the kind of enzymes that digest fat. Because of this, there is enough of the other two kinds of enzymes in a single Creon capsule to digest just about any amount of protein or carbohydrates you might eat in a single meal. If you eat something without any fat at all, you may still need an Enzyme capsule to digest any proteins and carbohydrates.
