It also clings to carbohydrates and eventually converts them to monosaccharides such as glucose. Carbohydrates can be stored in the body as glycogen, the polymeric form of glucose, for future use; however, if carbohydrates are eaten in excessive amounts, the body changes them into fats and stores them in that form. Amylase is also found during the ripening process of fruit plants where it synthesizes and gives the fruit a sweeter taste. - - - - - - - - - - - - Back to Top - - - - - - - - - - - - Amylase Uses & Scientific Evidence For Amylase tests can help diagnose many diseases where Amylase levels are elevated, and Amylase tests are done on both blood and urine when there is sudden abdominal pain. Pancreatitis is the main reason Amylase levels increase, but mumps infections can cause a rise as well. Other culprits could be ulcers, gall bladder disease, tumors of the lung or ovaries, alcohol poisoning, ruptured aortic aneurysm, and intestinal strangulation or perforations. People who cannot digest fats often eat sugar and carbohydrates to make up for the lack of fat in their diet, but doing so can often lead to an Amylase deficiency. - - - - - - - - - - - - Back to Top - - - - - - - - - - - - Amylase Dosage Information Amylase is an ingredient in many products.
