What causes elevated pancreas enzymes?
First, understand that a hormone is a type of enzyme. Insulin and glucagon are the two hormones in the pancreas. If you have too much glucose in your blood (i.e. eating a lot of carbohydrates like pasta, bread, fruits, milk, cake, and so on) then the hormone insulin will come out. Insulin decreases blood glucose. If you have to little glucose in your blood (i.e. exercising for a while without eating carbohydrates, not eating for days, etc.) then the hormone glucagon will come out. Glucagon increases the supply of glucose in your blood.
