Weight loss without dieting or exercise is often one of the first noticeable signs. People may continue eating normally but still lose weight unexpectedly. This happens because pancreatic can-cer can affect digestion by preventing the body from absorbing nutrients properly.
Why This Happens
The pancreas produces important digestive enzymes that help break down food. When a tumor disrupts this process, nutrients are not absorbed as they should be. As a result, the body loses weight even though calorie intake remains the same.
