First you need to see a nutritionist who specializes/has experience with this issue. There is a lot of information on the internet. Your pancreas is not producing sufficient enzymes to digest the food in your stomach when eat, thus the Zen pep/Creon/Panarese, etc. In addition to the compromised digestion, which causes malabsorption issues, you possibly face nutrient deficiencies. My personal instructions were: include, daily, vitamins K/A/D/Coq10/E/B complex/Good multi. Most of these are absorbed better with some kind of oil in your meal. Even taking all these, I still had a ferritin (part of your iron) and B2 deficiency, which manifested in my tongue and it has taken three months of supplements for those to clear, not to mention the medical tests to rule out oral disease of some kind. The iron deficiency developed due to not eating beef or pork. You are advised not to eat pork or beef, as they are harder to digest than chicken and fish and can cause extra stress. I eat a lot of vegetables, dried beans, grains, avocado. Have found that raw vegetables. slaw, salad do not digest well for me, so I only eat cooked foods, or experience pancreas discomfort while the raw items digest. Eliminate processed foods - fast food, chips, candy cakes, canned soups, frozen foods, sugar, as little processed as possible. These have little nutritional value and are harder to digest. No fried foods. I use Daves Killer and Ezekial breads, as they (especially Ezekial) have more nutritional value (for store bought bread) than most of the others. If you aren't familiar with Ezekial it is found in the frozen section, due to lack of preservatives and I thaw, and keep, it in the refrigerator. I use Vegenaise instead of mayo, Violife plant butter and cook with only olive oil. Eat a lot of tune and salmon salad and have a vegetable soup I make and freeze, so I always have something on hand. Have a crustless quiche each day for breakfast, with broccoli, peppers and onions

All of this information is trial and error for ME and working with a nutritionist. I am also pre-diabetic, so my diet is a little more restricted on the carb side. This diagnosis can be overwhelming at first, as they all can, but when you start working with it, you will figure out what works best for you. Good luck and find a good nutritionist and read medical articles about this disorder.
