i want to answer the question why does weight  loss sometimes increase the risk of gallstones  

take a look at this your fat  cell is composed of triglycerides  

and cholesterol a lot of people don’t realize this  especially the amount if you’re of a normal weight  

and you’re not overweight too much 25 of that fat  cell is made from cholesterol but if you are obese  

50 of that fat cell is going to be composed  of cholesterol so when you start losing weight  

this cholesterol is going to come out this  is why a lot of times on the ketogenic diet  

the cholesterol is higher initially because it’s  being dumped by the gallbladder but what you have  

to realize is there’s a control mechanism of this  cholesterol especially to get rid of the excess  

and that has to do with bile okay bile salts  bile salts help control the excess of cholesterol  

and it’s the lack of bile that can cause  a gallstone because you have this super  

concentrated cholesterol without enough bile  and then you get a gallstone so gallstones  

are caused by a bile deficiency now if you  add high insulin to this picture right here  

as well as a low-fat diet so let’s say someone is  obese you know they’re going to have high insulin  

and you know in the past they probably have been  on a lot of low-fat diets right well they’re going  

to have low amounts of bile and they’re going to  be at risk for getting gallstones so the solution  

is to go in a diet that’s low carb to reduce the  insulin and take purified bile salts i have done  

a lot of videos on this topic right here because  bile salts are quite magical what they can do in  

the body but in the gallbladder what they’re going  to do with fat is they’re going to help break down  

the fat molecules because the enzymes coming from  the pancreas specifically lipase cannot break down  

these globules of fat these fat compounds have to  first be broken down enough so the enzyme lipase  

can take effect and that’s where bile comes in  it’s like a detergent that breaks down the grease  

so now this enzyme can take it down all the way  to the smallest particle so your body can absorb  

it so with a bile you can’t digest fat you get  bloated you can’t pull in the fat type of vitamins  

and you can’t really regulate cholesterol  that well as well as increasing the risk  

of gallstones the simple solution is if you are  at risk for getting a gallstone let’s say you  

had one in the past and you’re obese just take  some purified bile salts that will keep you in  

a situation where you can actually definitely  minimize the risk for this right here hey before
