Hello. I m a female, 53 years old. Six months ago I had a pancreatic attack. I was hospitalized. My hospital stay was for three weeks and then I came home. About the same time I was diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes, and I had a gallbladder removal in January 2018. Now I m trying to eat healthy and doing my best to side-step any sort of gastrointestinal discomfort. I have a guestion about the menu: I found a tropical plant called taro root , I know that it can help regulate insulin and glucose levels in my body, so it is good for diabetic patients. But what about people who was diagnosed with chronic pancreatitis? Am I suppose to have some side affects? And also is there a possibility that taro roots will cause gallstones to form? I m so sorry for my english! I need an advice. Doctors in my country have no idea what taro root is. Thank you.
