Folk remedies for treating gallstones

There are many treatments for gallstones. Although folk remedies have a certain history, they cannot replace the effective treatment of modern medicine. Gallstones are a common digestive system disease caused by excessive cholesterol or bile pigment in bile. Common symptoms include upper abdominal pain, jaundice, and indigestion, all of which may seriously affect the quality of life.

In some folklore, some people mention drinking olive oil and lemon juice, making herbal teas, or changing diet habits to treat gallstones. However, most of these methods lack scientific basis and may have negative effects on the body. For example, excessive intake of fats may cause gastrointestinal discomfort or other digestive system diseases, and cannot directly dissolve or expel stones.

A scientific and healthy lifestyle is helpful for the prevention of gallstones and the improvement of quality of life. Maintaining a low-fat diet, consuming more fiber, avoiding cholesterol and high-sugar foods, and exercising properly to maintain a healthy weight can reduce the risk of gallstone development to some extent. However, once gallstones are diagnosed, the most effective and safe way is to follow the advice of medical professionals. Especially when symptoms are severe, such as severe abdominal pain or jaundice, you should seek medical attention for professional diagnosis and treatment in time. Avoid blindly using unverified folk remedies to avoid missing the best time for treatment or causing complications.
