“I was recently asked what someone could do about gall bladder problems. People who have problems with Gall Bladder and Stones usually eat large amounts of meats and fatty foods. These must be eliminated from the diet, in order to overcome this problem. Going on juice fasts and cutting out all dairy, animal products and processed foods and going on a whole food diet is strongly recommended. Once the pain is gone you can add animal products up to 10% of your caloric intake a day.
The liver manufactures bile, a digestive secretion; the gall bladder stores and excretes it into the small intestine when needed. ” The combination I’m going to give you helps the gall bladder function normally and prevents gall stones as given in The How-To Herb Book.
If you have problems in the gall bladder you probably have problems with the liver. Your liver is the detoxification organ. It purifies poisonous substances from the blood. It is a filtering organ.
