Exclamation Natural Cure For Gallstones?

I've been told I have "sand" and "crystals" in my gallbladder that might develop into stones over time and then I will have to have my whole gallbladder taken out. I am going to go check it out on ultrasound soon, and I am afraid that the stones might be formed now. I absolutely don't want to have an entire organ removed, no matter how "non-mandatory" people think its use is, until I exhaust all other possibilities. Especially because I also have gastritis and atypical ulcerous colitis (inflammation of stomach and intestines), so I am pretty sure all of the conditions are mainly caused by stress, and they could be gone if I get rid of the psychological part in the future.

I am interested in hearing of natural remedies, diets, etc. that I can use to break down and pass gallstones. So far I've only been using liquid made of herbs that is supposed to push gallbladder to "work" more. It's been helping my digestion but not solving the problem.

Thanks in advance!

Liver flushes will clear out the gallstones. If you google liver flush, you'll find many different recipes. Planetary Formulas has a supplement called STONE FREE that is supposed to break down stones.

You can also try mini flushes, which are essentially large bitter green salads with dandelion, chickory or any other bitter green with a sour apple like granny smith, I like adding radish and garnished with crystalized ginger to help offset the sourness. Top with 1/4 cup each of olive oil and lemon juice. If you eat one of these large salads daily, you will pass stones.

Barberry, balmony and fringetree are helpful herbs.

A liver/gallbladder flush may be helpful, but you do have a small risk of getting a stone stuck in a duct, or getting acute pancreatitis.

Are you looking for remedies for the psychological part, too?

I know that drinking lots of apple juice, or eating apples - 4 a day - can help with breaking down gallstones, but I don't know whether this might be a bad idea for your colitis? I expect you already know to avoid all foods high in cholesterol, too. Hope you find something that works.

I took this from a page about natural gallstone remedies:
Quote:
Vitamin C is key! In the fight against gallstones, vitamin C is gradually being understood as particularly effective. Vitamin C is used by the body to convert cholesterol to bile acids. With less cholesterol and more acids, the gallstone risk should be decreased. You can find vitamin C at your local grocery store or health store. It will also aid the immune system.

Can't add links yet, sorry.
