Can pancreatic deficiency cause diabetes and any other diseases? can it be cured? how severe is it?

Hi, Whenever I eat almonds/cashews/pista , my stool has lot of these . It appears as if they come out as I eat without any change. Does that indicate pancreatic insufficiency?

Nope. It just indicates you should chew better.

Pancreatic insufficiency would impact your digestion of everything, including water.
It can range from minor and short term -- caused by an injury or other illness -- and resolve on it's own with several days of bowel rest (IVs only, no food or water).
To severe and permanent, requiring daily pills to replace the enzymes your pancreas doesn't make, and a modified diet.

The pancreas manufactures insulin. That's where the diabetes connection comes in.
Insulin, however, is not the only enzyme the pancreas creates.

Remember to chew, not just pop them in your mouth.
