The
majority of gallbladder conditions do not
require a doctor visit or surgery. Most can be resolved by gallbladder
flushes,
which are able to cleanse the gallbladder and have you feeling back to
new in
no time. In today's health conscious world more people are opting for
natural
solutions rather than the pill-popping cure.
Your gallbladder is able to cause many problems from chest pain to a
bitter
taste in your mouth. Are you aware that stress can cause gall bladder
problems?
Dairy products that are very cold, eating foods that contain a lot of
spices,
and stress can also make your gallbladder act up. Bile, which is made
by the
gallbladder goes to the digestive tract to break down oils and fats.
While most gallbladder problems are mild, some can be life threatening.
If you
develop gallstones, which can become trapped in the neck of the
gallbladder,
you can become very ill.
If they become lodged in the duct that leads
from your
liver and gall bladder to the small intestine you can develop nausea,
chills,
and jaundice. It is best to consult your doctor if you have any of
these
symptoms.
1-Day Gallbladder Flush
One of the most popular Do It Yourself gallbladder flushes only takes 1
day. If
you want to do this flush, start the first thing in the morning and
only eat
organic apples. You should consume a minimum of 5 per day. Green apples
have
shown to be much more effective at softening gallstones than the red
ones.
Drink nothing but pure water and herbal teas.
Right before going to bed mix 2/3 cup of body temperature olive oil
with 1/3
cup of fresh lemon juice, sip this, and then retire immediately. Lay
only on
your right side drawing up your right leg and in the morning all stones
should
pass in the stool. It is suggested that this one-day flush only be done
with
the advice of your healthcare provider.
5- Day Gallbladder Flush
There is another way of gallbladder cleansing, however it takes 5 days
instead
of 1. This flush consists of eating apples and radishes for five days.
Also for
those five days take 2 tablespoons of olive oil and 2 tablespoons of
lemon
juice when the stomach is empty.
21-Day Gallbladder Cleanse
A more gradual method requires 21 days, it is easier on the body, and
can be
done 2 or 3 times per year. During this 21-day period do not consume
meat,
foods that are high in fat content, or any kind of dairy products. Eat
grains
that have not been processed, fruits, and vegetables.
Radishes get rid of stones, so during this period consume 1 or 2
radishes per
day as a snack between your regular meals. Drink 3 cups of cleavers tea
or 5
cups of chamomile tea per day. Calculate using your weight, for every
32 pounds
of weight use 1 teaspoon of cold pressed flaxseed oil and pour it on
your food.
If you prefer you can divide it and use the amount you get in two
meals. Do
this routine 6 days a week for 2 months. This is a longer process than
the 1
day or 5-day gall bladder cleanse but it can be used 2 or 3 times a
year. Use
this method when you feel that it is necessary and will keep your gall
bladder
clean and make you feel 100% refreshed.
One of the most important things you can do to keep your gallbladder
flushed
and in top shape is to be more aware of your dietary intake. Eat
healthy and
follow a good exercise regimen. This has been shown to lessen the
buildup of
gallstones and thus results in making you feel better and have more
energy.
