food = sugar, so pancreas secretes insuline which will lower the sugar in the blood and stock it in the liver (as glycogen), so insuline peaks after eating a meal, and goes back down again between meals. when the blood sugar starts to get too low, the pancreas secretes glucagon, which is basically the opposite of insuline: it turns the glycogen into sugar again and takes it out of the liver and puts it back into the blood etc
dunno about digestion
