Amylase is an enzyme secreted by the salivary glands, pancreas and intestine and excreted into the gut to facilitate breakdown of starch into sugars.

In certain conditions like pancreatitis, amylase escapes into the blood, raising levels. Food rich in protein, low in animal fats, and containing antioxidants can make your pancreas healthy and thus maintains normal amylase level.
