Stones in the gallbladder - diet

Every seventh inhabitant of our planet in the gall bladder does not do without stones. And this is by no means a disease of the elderly, very often "pebbles" of 3-4 cm in length are found in adolescents, as well as in expectant mothers. By the way, women are more prone to stone formation due to hormonal processes. Conclusion suggests itself: an urgent fight with the stones in the gall bladder, we start with a diet.

From the course of biology ...

Bile is a necessary substance for digestion, which is formed in the liver, and stored in it as well as in the gall bladder. Hepatic bile is more concentrated in composition than bubble. And, in general, a day for each of us is formed up to 1200 ml of bile. Functions of bile - dissolving fats, removing harmful substances (antibiotics, for example), increasing intestinal peristalsis.

For some reason, bile and cholesterol are inherently connected. The reason is simple: excess bile and cholesterol are combined in gallstones. Cholesterol is also formed in the liver - this is 80% of our need for it, the rest is added with food. Cholesterol is needed for the synthesis of sex hormones, digestion, cell membranes and the assimilation of vitamins. Its excess leads to heart attacks-strokes.

Controlling the level of cholesterol by nutrition, you can get rid of gallstones.

Proper nutrition

Vegetarians have no stones in the gall bladder almost never, and vice versa, they have in fact always in support of supplements of protein nutrition. Excess protein food with high cholesterol content is a guarantee of stones.

Diet with stones in the gallbladder should contain a maximum of vegetables and vegetable oils. Vegetables due to vegetable protein stimulate the cleavage of excess cholesterol, and vegetable oils improve the intestinal motility, contribute to the reduction of the bladder, and thereby prevent the accumulation of bile in it.

Coffee is the best stimulant for the formation of gallstones. If you already have them, nutrition with stones in the gallbladder should completely eliminate coffee, even with caffeine, albeit without. Only half a cup of coffee stimulates unnecessary and useless reduction of the gallbladder.

Fractional power

Those who take a break between meals, more than 14 hours have the highest risk of stones. Also, the risk group includes lovers not having breakfast, as well as ladies who are hungry. Lack of regular nutrition leads to the fact that the GIT lacks the required amount of bile acids, which means that excess cholesterol is not broken down and precipitated, in the form of stones.

Diets

If you weigh more than 10 kg, the risk of gallstones doubles! But at the same time, you can not quickly lose weight on diets with a low fat content. To avoid this, a diet for stones, as well as for weight loss, should include 1-2 teaspoons of unrefined olive oil in each meal. Vegetable fat stimulates the gallbladder, it helps it to avoid bile stasis. With stagnation, bile is excreted directly into the intestine, and this leads to the formation of stones directly. Your weight loss should be as smooth and slow as possible. With rapid weight loss, the risk of developing cholelithiasis is doubled!

Alcohol

Moderate alcohol consumption improves cholesterol digestion and reduces the risk of stone formation by 40%. However, exceeding the dose does not increase the preventive effect, and the most harmless daily rate is ½ cup of wine or beer.

Women

As for the ladies - the frequent carriers of gallstones, most of the stones are not formed in women who constantly include in their diet: cereals, legumes, nuts and oranges.
