never have attracted your notice, acts in a very conscious and planned
manner on your behalf, and it possesses a flawless system that keeps you
alive.
The pancreas’ entry into action in the digestive system takes place
with a special message. As the digestive processes continue in the stomach,
a special enzyme called cholesystokinin begins to enter the bloodstream.
When this enzyme reaches a certain level in the blood, this stimulates the
pancreas, notifying it that the time for action has come, whereupon the
pancreas begins secreting fragmenting enzymes into the duodenum 28
(Figure 132).

A special message is needed for the pancreas to go into action
during digestion. This message is the release of a special en-
zyme known as cholesystokinin into the bloodstream. When
this enzyme reaches a specific level, the pancreas is stimu-
lated. At this, the pancreas starts secreting breakdown en-
zymes into the duodenum.
