Nutrition Advice & Recipes

The Healthy Lifestyle Guide is a very important section for us at The National Pancreatic Foundation. We recognize quality of life is important to all of us, but certainly much more of a challenge for individuals, and their loved ones, trying to manage chronic illness.

Our goal is to provide support and information of all aspects of daily life-nutrition, medical treatments, pain management and practical tips. For example, we are currently developing a comprehensive cookbook which you will be able to download soon. This will feature over 200 recipes!

Below are some examples of delicious appetizers and main dishes which are extremely low in fat content and generally do not irritate those with pancreatic diseases. However, before embarking on a new diet, exercise program or medical therapy, please consult with your physician.

Appetizers

Carrot and Sweet Potato Soup with Cranberry Relish
Lime -Spiked Black Bean Dip

Main Dishes

Gloria Loring’s Lentil Stew
Citrus Chicken with Oregano and Cumin

Visit us soon to access our new cookbook, or to learn more about medical treatments, pain management and practical tips. We encourage everyone to share ideas, questions and insights.
