Wolfing down food = Blood sugar spikes + Pancreatic overwork

People who eat like they're fighting a battle are the ones who damage their pancreas the most. When you wolf down your food, your pancreas has to work overtime to secrete digestive enzymes. Prolonged overwork may lead to inflammation and even permanent damage. Worse, this way of eating can cause blood sugar levels to spike, contributing to diabetes. Protecting the pancreas is simple: eat slowly, start with vegetables, and stop eating when you're 70% full.
