hey guys I’m back in this video we’re

going to talk about gall stones and the

massive confusion there is about it some

people say well it comes from a high

carbohydrate diet other people say it’s

a low carb diet or a high fat diet high

protein diet so here you are trying to

get rid of your Golf Jones you don’t

know what to do okay

so a couple things you need to know gall

stones are cholesterol stones okay it’s

concentrated cholesterol all right it’s

not calcium its cholesterol and bile bi

le which is made by the liver and stored

in the gall bladder has a couple

functions one is it will help to

dissolve fats and extract fat soluble

vitamins number two it also keeps stones

from developing so gall stones really

are a bile deficiency so anything that

will create a deficiency of bile will

create gall stones all right let’s talk

about the high carbohydrate diet

first of all high carb diets increase

insulin and by the way insulin converts

sugar into cholesterol so you’re going

to get a huge spike of cholesterol and

this is one of the causes of gall stones

high carb diets okay I’ll put a link

down below really because of the high

spike in insulin so if you’re trying to

get rid of gall stones you definitely

have to keep the insulin really really

low number two high protein diets so

anytime you consume excessive amounts of

protein you also try your insulin which

can cause high amounts of gall stones

not to mention the strain on the liver

and the gallbladder with too much

protein okay now let’s talk about high

fat diets now the main food that

triggers the release of bile is

saturated fats so it’s not true the high

fat diets will cause golf tones unless

you consume the high protein or the high

carb now if you’re not used to it you

don’t have the bile reserve to handle

the amount of dietary fat that you’re

consuming that can create a strain on

your digestive system and bloating but

not golf stones it’s more of a

distension and strain on the gallbladder

because it’s trying to keep up with the

digestion it can also put a strain on

the pancreas as well but high-fat diets

are not one of the causes of gall stones

especially if you’re not adding an

lots of carbs and high levels of protein

okay now let’s talk about a low-carb

diet now doing a low-carb diet will

definitely lower insulin which is a good

thing but when you lower insulin you’re

gonna mobilize a lot of fat release from

the fat cell well guess what’s in the

fat cell cholesterol and triglycerides

so now we’re going to dump a lot of

cholesterol into the system if your

liver is fatty if your liver is damaged

if your gallbladder is sluggish if you

don’t have a gallbladder that can back

up and lead to a fatty liver and also

decrease your bile release thereby

causing stones and this is why I always

recommend consuming a lot of vegetables

if you’re doing a low carb diet an

unlimited amount of vegetables to keep

the flow going to keep the liver

cleansed as you dump all this fat

through the system and through the liver

so anytime you’re doing a little car and

let’s say you’re doing higher fats with

moderate amount of protein and not

enough vegetables you potentially could

plug up the liver and actually reduce

the release of bile and cause of golf

stones and this is why anytime you’re

doing the ketosis diet you need to add a

lot of vegetables to it okay a large

amounts to keep your liver free of fat

and keep yourself free of golf stones so

if you feel even bloating because you’re

consuming too much fat all you do is

reduce that and increase more vegetables

and those symptoms should go away so I

hope that cleared up the confusions on

what causes gall stones if you don’t

have a gall bladder this still applies

you might want to add some purified bile

salts because the cause of gall stones

is really low amounts of bile all right
