The Natural Gallstone Cure
Gallstones,
sometimes referred to as "gallbladder attacks", are more than a painful
nuisance. Untreated, gallstones can cause jaundice or pancreatitis, and
can even require surgery with complete removal of the gallbladder. Don't
wait for what might otherwise be inevitable. Cure gallstones with
natural and simple adjustments.
Your Gallbladder and You
The
gallbladder stores bile produced by the liver. It releases bile, which
is needed to break down fats, chemicals, and toxins, so that they can be
flushed out of the body. If the liver becomes overworked with extra
fats and poisons, the bile can crystallize and form gallstones.
Risk factors for gallstones include...
o body weight
o elevated cholesterol level
o high-fat/low-fiber/starchy diet or fewer, larger meals
o rapid weight loss
o some medications, hormone therapy, pregnancy
Symptoms of Gallstones
Gallstones
can be asymptomatic until they reach a certain size. Then the condition
is characterized by severe abdominal pain (described as similar to
kidney stones), nausea, vomiting, fever, abdominal bloating and
indigestion. Attacks are most common after large, fatty meals,
especially in the evening before bed.
Medical Treatment
Gallstones
are sometimes treated with an orally-administered acid, but recurrence
is common when treatment is stopped. Surgery is a more common option.
Complete
removal of the gallbladder, or "open" surgery, requires a week's
hospital stay and an additional month of recuperation. Nearly 40% of
patients experience persistent pain and gastrointestinal distress, and
20% develop chronic diarrhea. Risks of serious complications include
vascular injury and bowel perforation.
The second surgical option
is laparoscopic, or non-invasive. This requires a week of bed rest and
another month of light activity. Many patients report residual pain and a
decreased energy level up to a few months following the procedure.
It seems a bleak prognosis, doesn't it? It doesn't have to be.
Cure Gallstones Naturally
Cure
and prevention of gallstones is quite simple. If you're having a
gallbladder attack now, drink a full glass of water, followed with
magnesium. This may help regulate bile flow. Similarly, drink a
"gallbladder flush" - apple juice mixed with raw garlic and raw ginger
root.
To prevent gallstones naturally...
o Take a high quality organic herbal supplement. (see below)
o Change your diet to high-fiber/low-fat, with lots of raw, fresh
vegetables, fresh fruit, whole grains. Eliminate saturated fats,
starches, and fried foods.
o Limit dairy and cholesterol intake (milk, eggs, butter, meat)
o Increase your intake of Vitamin C, folate, calcium, and magnesium,
all of which are indicated in liver and gallbladder health.
o Eat frequent light meals throughout the day.
o Avoid eating before bedtime.
What kind of herbal supplement should I take?
Therapeutic
Action: You want a powerful, stimulating formula that is cleansing,
healing, and strengthening to the both the liver and gallbladder. The
organic herbs in the formula should work synergistically to help heal
and detoxify these vital organs. The formula should work by stimulating
the liver to produce more bile through the gallbladder and bile ducts.
The increased bile flow allows the liver and gallbladder to flush out
thousands of toxins, chemicals, antibiotics, pollutants, drugs, and
cholesterol safely from the body. The formula should also dramatically
reduces inflammation, pain, and even removes gallstones safely from the
body.
