A person had to undergo a surgery in which a major portion of his pancreas was removed. Which of the following food constituents will he find especially difficult to digest?

Question

Accepted Answer

Fats. The pancreas supplies lipase, the key enzyme for fat digestion. When much of the pancreas is removed, lipase production drops sharply, so fats become especially hard to digest.
