The pancreas is an organ in your body which is only about half a foot long. It is situated next to your small intestine in the upper part of your abdominal region. Its primary functions are to produce hormones (insulin and glucagon) which regulate your blood sugar, and also to manufacture enzymes which aid in digesting food.
