What Are the Consequences of Impaired Exocrine Function Due to Toxins?
Impaired exocrine function can lead to a host of health issues. In the pancreas, reduced enzyme secretion can cause malabsorption and nutritional deficiencies. Impaired salivary gland function can lead to dry mouth, increased dental caries, and difficulty swallowing. Dysfunctional sweat glands can result in heat intolerance and reduced ability to eliminate waste. These issues highlight the importance of understanding and mitigating exposure to harmful environmental toxins.
