Recently, the Internet celebrity "Alisasha" published a video of "Drinking Olive Oil to Eliminate Gallstones". The pediatrician who took the stage was also a well-known YouTuber "Blue Pigeon", which also caused criticism from the medical community. Alishasha later apologized for the incident. The nutritionist also bluntly stated that the public should not be mistaken in home remedies, and many chronic diseases can be prevented through a correct diet, and shared the "3 tips for preventing gallstones".
Nutritionist Lin Licen pointed out that the prevention of diseases should only be helped under the basis of safety and empirical science, and the responsibility of nutritionists is to educate the public to eat the right food to prevent the occurrence of diseases. In response to drinking oil to expel gallstones, Lin Licen explained that gallstones are digestive juice deposits formed in the gallbladder. The liver will secrete bile and temporarily store it in the gallbladder. When we eat food containing fat, the bile (bile) in the gallbladder However, when the liver produces bile, if too much cholesterol is secreted into the bile, the cholesterol is supersaturated and crystallized, and gallstones are easily formed. Most of the gallstones belong to "cholesterol stones". ".
So generally speaking, the formation of gallstones may be caused by long-term intake of excessively greasy, high-saturated-fat meats, buttery ghee pastry products, delicate bread cakes, etc. However, an excessively light and oil-free diet may not cause gallstones! Because the intake of fat in the diet is too small, the bile accumulated in the gallbladder will be continuously concentrated, and it will also cause gallstones, so the unbiased nutrients are king.
Also, some people are too drastic in the weight management process, taking prolongedIntermittent fasting or fasting for more than 12 hours, coupled with insufficient water intake and the concentration of bile, can also increase the risk of developing gallstones.
☑Senior ☑Women, the incidence rate is 3 to 4 times that of men ☑ Obesity ☑ Patients with hypercholesterolemia ☑ Love to eat high-fat, high-calorie, high-cholesterol foods ☑ Those with a family history of gallstones ☑ Excessive dieting and fasting ☑ Hormonal changes during pregnancy may also alter bile composition
Lin Licen reminds that to prevent the occurrence of gallstones, there are several aspects of diet that should be paid more attention to:
1. Avoid eating a lot of fat, even if it is good fat, just in moderation.
2. Reduce the intake of foods with high cholesterol, high saturated fat and trans fat, such as animal offal, seafood, red meat (pig, beef and sheep), butter and ghee products (bread and cake), etc.
3. Increase the intake of a variety of fruits and vegetables, remember that the amount of vegetables needs to be more than that of fruits, and it is better to limit the amount of fruits to less than 2 servings per day. Consuming vegetables, fruits, cereals, bean pods and other foods rich in sufficient dietary fiber can combine with cholesterol in the body and metabolize it out of the body, reducing the risk of developing gallstones.
4. Make sure to take enough water every day to avoid the bile being too thick. The daily amount of water should be "weight × 30-40 coefficient" as the amount of water for a whole day.
5. Regular diet, avoid eating too long between meals, even if you want to lose weight, it must be done gradually.
Lin Licen also mentioned that if the gallbladder is removedIt is also recommended not to consume a diet that is too greasy or high-fat and high-cholesterol after surgery, otherwise there may be frequent diarrhea problems. Basically, the digestive juice of the small intestine is no problem to decompose fat, and the gallbladder only temporarily stores bile, even if Removal of the gallbladder will also not have much effect on the digestion of fat. Diet is from the perspective of prevention. When a disease occurs, treatment is given priority, and diet aids will help the recovery of the disease.
