What causes Gall Stones?

If the liver is overloaded with toxins and saturated fats, the bile (which carries toxins and fats) will eventually inflame the gallbladder. When enough cholesterol deposits (from saturated fats) have formed, they crystallize with the bile to form Gall Stones.

What are the symptoms?

Often, persons with Gall Stones have no symptoms. If the gallbladder becomes inflamed, it can cause sever pain in the upper right abdomen. These symptoms often arise after the individual has eaten fried or fatty foods. If a stone blocks the bile passage however, nausea, vomiting and pain in the upper right abdominal region occur. This condition must be treated immediately as it can be life threatening.

What is the key to protecting yourself from Gall Stones?

According to the peer reviewed medical journal Medical Hypotheses, the key to correcting gallbladder disorders is to stop overloading the liver with toxins and saturated fats. Remember, cholesterol deposits from saturated fats cause Gall Stones, so avoiding saturated fats in your diet is the key. Saturated fats do not exist in the vegetable kingdom. They are only available in meat and dairy foods. Therefore, "vegetarian diets offer protection against Gall Stones." Medical Hypotheses, 40(2), February 1993, p. 81-84
