Prevent Gallstones With Everyday Foods

The production of gallstones can be encouraged or discouraged by eating the wrong things or the right things.

What You Should Be Consuming:

1.  If you juice fresh fruits and vegetables daily, you will be alkalizing your body and helping to reduce inflammation as well as enzymatically detoxifying both your liver and gallbladder.  Some suggestions are raw, unfiltered apple juice, lemons, celery, tomatoes, and beets. 

2.   Eat healthy fats. - Some experts encourage gallbladder patients to avoid fats altogether, especially when they have already had gallbladder surgery.  Certain fats are actually helpful in warding off potential and existing gallstones such as olive oil, coconut oil, wild caught salmon and other fatty fish, wild game and grass fed hormone free beef.

3.  Supplement with sunflower or non-GMO soy lecithin.  One of the easiest and quickest ways to dissolve gallstones is to supplement with lecithin derived from either sunflower or non-GMO (genetically modified organism) soy.

4.  Supplement with apple cider vinegar and malic acid. 

5.  Cook with turmeric or take it as a supplement.  Studies have shown that turmeric, a spice composed mainly of curcumin, is a powerful antioxidant and anti-inflammatory food that helps maintain a healthy gallbladder.   

What You Should Be Avoiding:

1.  Toxic fats such as soybean and canola oil, which come from a class of fats that are a primary cause of disease-causing inflammation.

2.  Hydrogenated oils and trans fat are dangerously high in omega-6 fatty acids compared to omega-3 fatty acids and cause chronic inflammation

If you have a gall bladder problem, you should consult your physician before implementing any of these changes.
