Answer:

The correct answer is 2. "the child needs these pancreatic enzymes to help the digestive system absorb fats, carbohydrates, and proteins".

Explanation:

90% of patients with cystic fibrosis get the pancreatic enzymes supplement because of their pancreatic insufficiency. These enzymes are released in the intestine and help to digest food.

The enzymes´ principal functions are:

- To digest carbohydrates, proteins, and fats;

- To help to gain weight;

- To promote the absorption of nutrients.

To get an appropriate corporal weight and an improved lungs´ functioning it is important to take the enzyme supplement with every meal. It reduces bad absorption and improves nutrition.
