What should people with gallstones not eat?

Patients with gallstones should avoid high-fat, high-cholesterol and irritating foods in their diet to prevent biliary colic and worsening of the condition. Fried foods, animal offal, strong tea and coffee should be avoided as much as possible. These foods may stimulate gallbladder contraction or aggravate inflammation, causing discomfort to patients and even leading to acute cholecystitis.

The formation of gallstones is related to the imbalance of bile components. Foods with high fat content (such as lard, butter, fried chicken, etc.) will cause the gallbladder to contract, which may lead to stone incarceration and severe pain. High-cholesterol foods (such as animal liver, egg yolk, fatty meat) will increase the concentration of cholesterol in bile and aggravate the formation of stones. Excessively cold or overheated stimulating drinks, such as strong tea, coffee, carbonated drinks, etc., may not only irritate the gallbladder, but also cause digestive discomfort. Overeating and high-sugar foods (such as cakes, sweet drinks) may also increase the burden on the gallbladder. Patients should choose their diet carefully.

In your daily diet, you should eat more foods rich in dietary fiber, such as whole grains, vegetables, and fruits, to promote bile excretion and reduce the risk of gallstones. Keeping meals light and avoiding greasy foods, and eating small meals frequently can help control bile secretion. Regular work and rest and moderate exercise are also important ways to prevent gallstones from worsening. If symptoms recur or pain is severe, you should seek medical attention in time. After a clear diagnosis, choose treatments such as drug dissolution, lithotripsy, or cholecystectomy according to the doctor's advice, and do not delay the condition. Dietary adjustments combined with professional treatment will help patients improve their quality of life.
