so i am a poster child for right-sided shoulder  and neck pain i had this problem for over a  

decade and had no clue what it was i’ve done  videos on it but a lot of people new to my  

channel have not seen those other videos so i  wanted to do another video for anyone who has  

right-sided tightness or pain okay either in the  head the neck the shoulder or in your back on the  

right side between your scapula and your spine  okay it’s called the rhomboid on the right side  

if that’s tight if it’s painful or this right trap  is tight or painful this video is for you now i  

know some people are going to say well i have it  on the left side i will cover that so we have this  

thing called the liver which is on the right side  hint and you have all these little uh tubes that  

drain through the liver that form these little  ducts they’re called bile ducts because your  

liver generates bile and it all just flows down  and it goes right into the gallbladder where it  

concentrates right and then when you need it  when you eat the gallbladder contracts and  

it goes into the small intestine and it helps you  break down fats okay with the help of the pancreas  

the pancreas then will release lipase which is  an enzyme to break down the fat and take it to  

even a smaller level so then the intestine can  absorb it so there’s several different places  

where this process can break down number one if  you have a fatty liver or you have a liver that’s  

uh cirrhosis is scar tissue because then you can’t  have things flow that well and things get kind  

of backed up you can also have a bile that’s very  very thick like sludge okay that just doesn’t flow  

so the concentration of bile is not there to  break down the cholesterol so we have we’re  

very heavy on the cholesterol very low in the  bile and it turns into a sludge and it backs up  

when it backs up the bile goes up in the liver and  it starts to irritate the liver because bile is  

like a detergent and then that irritation creates  inflammation and it will definitely cause pain on  

your right rhomboid area or right trap now what if  there’s a problem the gallbladder or the ducts a  

little bit lower well that can create a backup  and congestion underneath the right rib cage  

and you have a little nerve there called the  phrenic nerve and that nerve goes all the way up  

actually on both sides but if it’s  if you have compression on one side  

it’s going to pinch and create a constriction  on the right side through here and even cause  

that vertebrae to twist because there’s a spasm  in that area so you keep going the chiropractor  

you adjust it but it keeps popping out because  the gallbladder is continually irritated and it  

can even cause pinching of a nerve that goes down  your right arm too so anything on the right side  

think gallbladder even headaches on the  right temple if the duct in the pancreas  

which by the way joins the bile duct right close  to the small intestine if there’s some blockage  

you can actually get a backup into the pancreatic  area okay that’s when you’re going to feel the  

pain on the left side okay it could be anywhere  on the left side so if you have this discomfort  

on the left side think more pancreas but it’s  still the same problem it’s either a sludge  

in these bile ducts or it’s a stone and by the way  it’s very very hard sometimes to detect this even  

on an mri because sometimes the sludge just does  not show up there’s no big stone and it’s really  

hard to detect uh this very thick bile the best  thing and least expensive thing to do is just  

to take some purified bile salts and then that  will start to loosen things up and it’ll start  

draining and you’ll feel better then you really  know that there’s a connection now what causes  

these problems the biggest thing is unsaturated  fatty acids as in omega-6 fatty acids corn oil  

canola soy cotton seed okay those oils  it’s in dressings it’s in condiments it’s  

in a tremendous amount of foods right especially  if you go out to dinner you’re going to be getting  

some of these oils and then that’s going to  go into the body it’s going to create a lot  

of inflammation in your liver in fact the reason  why i’m writing all these things down is because  

i will experience pain right here if i actually  consume any of these items actually at least one  

through four all right so number one it’s too  many omega-6 fatty acids number two too many  

nuts why because nuts are heavy in omega-6 fatty  acids right they also have other things as well  

like oxalates and other things that can irritate  the bile ducts number three chemicals in the food  

i’ll give an example sometimes when i’m traveling  i can’t seem to get organic coffee so if i’m  

consuming some coffee that’s not organic it’s  usually going to have chemicals pesticides and man  

will i feel it underneath my right rib cage and  i will get this little thing right through here  

okay so i don’t drink a lot of it before  refined carbs will definitely irritate this area  

okay and five if you’re new to keto a lot of  times people will do heavy amounts of mct oil  

they might do a lot of keto bombs and the  liver is not ready to handle all these fats  

so then they start getting bloating underneath the  right rib cage and pain right here simple solution  

cut down on the excess fats don’t start adding  coconut oil or mct oil you’re not ready for that  

let your body adapt to this higher fat diet and  in the meantime you can even take some purified  

bile salts to help with the digestion of these  fats the other thing to do is to start increasing  

omega-3 fatty acids like the salmon sardines  cod liver oil very healthy cut down the nuts  

do organic do the healthy version of keto  if you’re new to my channel i put a link  

down below increase the amount of vegetables  because vegetables don’t irritate this bile duct  

they actually help the flow of bile through these  little tiny tubes and most importantly doing  

fasting doing regular intermittent fasting and  doing periodic prolonged fasting because if you’re  

fasting you let the liver and the gallbladder  and the bile ducts and the entire digestive  

system finally heal and rest so it can rejuvenate  all right if you want more information i put some
