Gall Bladder issues

I'm curious because I've never heard about this until today. Has anyone had any Bladder problems on low Carb?

I know right now I'm nowhere near low carb, but I have low carbed and this is news to me.

Best wishes,
Xeta  Happy

Gallstones are caused by low fat diets.

The main stimulant for the gallbladder is fat. Eat little or no fat and you produce very little bile. Your gallbladder may get impacted with stones due to the lack of flowing bile.

When you start eating more fat the liver starts producing more bile (one of the reasons cholesterol levels may rise from eating fat is because it's a component of bile) and the gallbladder gets more stimulation, the stones that have been sitting in there for several years during low fat eating then get pushed out and may cause discomfort, pain and get stuck.


Today's lesson: Eating lard everyday keeps the gallstones away.

My dad recently got his gall bladder removed, and on advice from his doctor, he's eating even LESS fat now...not like he was getting any before.

If you get your gallbladder removed, do you have to eat a low fat diet? I went to the gastro today and they think there is something wrong with my gallbladder and I'm getting an ultrasound on it tomorrow. I'm worried that if I have to get it removed, I dont want to be forced to eat low fat.
Puma

My dad says he can eat more than his doctor said he could. The liver does produce bile, so you would probably have to eat less or more frequently or something...I don't know. Sad

I know several people who are doing LC without a gallbladder. Often they just need a little more time to adapt. Eating smaller amounts several times per day seems to work. Sipping cream.  Yup

thanks everyone...whew I was afraid I would have to do ornish or something  Laugh well i dont even know if its my gallbladder thats giving me issues or not, so hopefully its not the case.

Right now my family is giving me crap about the high fat diet anyway  Very Mad and it doesnt help that I've gained weight (because of other issues I was having with overeating because of the stomach problems & PB), but now they are like..see I told you so!! It's so irritating!

ornish effing sucks

I think he's OK  Evil
Carne Vorare

everyone's entitled to their own opinion  Happy

but he has a most UN-remarkable physical presence, not to mention nutrition theories that leak prodigiously at the seams..imho
Avalon

Yeah  Bonkers  and The Bear's a sweetie too  Roll Eyes

Carne Vorare

yeah. just look @ them.

Bear resembles an-ex marine *a good thing* straight out of the movies facially

..and the Ornish guy makes me look like freakin' Captain America

ROTFL

you CAN eat HIGH fat and have no gall bladder. I got mine removed 8 yrs ago and i aim for 80% fat! lol Laugh
meatISawesome369

Bear's got a broad facial structure and neck. I wonder if it was that way before years of low carb?
adwred

Is it just me, or do they both have enormous ears?? Shock

I guess ear-size must not be related to diet. Cool

I'm sure he can feel you sucking his dick all the way in Oz, Carne. Laugh

This thread's old, but I gotta tell ya, Ornish don't look like that NOW.  That's an old picture.

I had my gallbladder removed, and I can eat plenty of fat....just have to not eat a HUGE amount at one time.  I eat 3 meals a day and plenty of fat each meal, no problems.
Avalon

I don't look like I used to either  Cry
Glennart

A think I felt my gallbladder yesterday. I ate a LOAD of butter and two fatty steaks for dinner. Probably 200 g fat in that meal. A while after my meal I could feel this stabbing type of pain just under my right ribcage. It was nothing too serious and went away after a few minutes. Afterwards I felt fine and did not get any digestive problems at all.

I'm not sure whether to laugh or sympathize?   I can make this statement as well  Yup   Maybe not to the same degree.
Vesna

Did anyone catch the multi-part Ornish interview on Jimmy Moore's podcast? Ornish just drove me crazy all the way through. He had no information or explanation for anything, no account of the mechanisms of how anything works. Just kept repeating his "studies" that supposedly show his ridiculous eating plan to be the best thing since sliced bread. Wait a minute -- it really is the best thing since sliced bread, because that's one of the worst dietary developments you can name!

Hi Meg, for clarification purposes, and I am a puzzle of pieces, I meant the horrid lines on my face  Sad   I'm going to have to make them work for me somehow, design wise, because if I'm at all like my Mother, it's in the facial wrinkle department. From having smoked? Gaining/losing weight?

And I hear you  There  It's a journey for sure

Yup
Carnation

That's why gawd made photoshop.  I make a some good cash erasing other people's facial lines.  Laugh
Avalon

Now how to do that in Real Life  Cry  ehh, cheaply and very little pain   Yup
wifezilla

I wish the BRIGHTNESS option from photoshop worked IRL too!

LOTS of people could use a brightness increase Happy
