Excessive alcohol use can lead to pancreatitis as it promotes the formation of toxic metabolites, which can damage pancreatic cells. Alcohol also stimulates the pancreas to secrete digestive enzymes prematurely, causing inflammation and autodigestion of pancreatic tissue. Additionally, chronic alcohol consumption can lead to the formation of protein plugs in the pancreatic ducts, obstructing the flow of digestive juices and exacerbating inflammation. Together, these effects contribute to both acute and chronic pancreatitis.
