so today i want to talk about what does gall stones and kidney stones

have in common okay first of all a gallstone is a cholesterol stone

a kidney stone is more of a calcium stem so that’s definitely what they don’t

have in common okay what happens with gallstones is you get

this super saturated uh cholesterol particle that builds up

because you are lacking bile bile normally is supposed to break up things

and keep your cholesterol from binding and forming stones if you have a

gallstone we know you have low bile and there’s even tests

that can be done to measure the ratio of your cholesterol to your bile so your

cholesterol bile ratio just to see what that’s at so the lower

the bile the more concentrated the cholesterol

the more the gall stem now the kidney stone there’s several

different kinds this is the most common one right here calcium oxalates and it

binds and it has these really jagged edges

that can create a lot of pain and discomfort and bleeding in your

kidney and also the pressure that builds up because it’s obstructing

the urine flow this is what they both have in common

if you look at the condition crohn’s which is a malabsorption

problem of your intestines you nearly always have low amounts of bile

production now that’s probably because the last

part of your small intestine is damaged and that’s where you’re

supposed to absorb and recycle bile 95 percent

of all your bile gets absorbed at the last part of the small intestine before

it goes into large intestine and gets sucked back and recycled if

your intestine is damaged you’re not going to recycle that so

you’re going to be deficient in bile and what’s interesting about crohn’s and

different types of malabsorption problems is that

there is a high risk of not just gallstones

but kidney stones as well and here’s some extra data that you need to know

bile binds with calcium and oxalates so if you have enough bile

it can help you decrease the risk of building up this calcium oxalates in the

kidneys because it will decrease the amount of

calcium and oxalates that’s present in your urine and so

there’s a bile connection a bile deficiency

in both gallstones and kidney stones if we take it one step

further we look at fiber fiber also can decrease the risk

of kidney stones because it binds with calcium

and oxalates so one thing you need to know is that a good amount of vegetable

in your diet will help you also vegetables contain magnesium which

will also decrease the risk of kidney stones and

they’re a good source of potassium which also can help reduce the risk

of kidney stones and another point about kidney stones is that if you’re at risk

it’s very very vital that you consume over 2.5 liters

of fluid every single day that will keep things diluted enough where

these calcium oxalates can’t form now your microbiome bacteria

make bile salts as well so your liver makes the primary bile salts

they come down and your microbes take those primary bio salts

strip off a few things little proteins and things like that and then turn them

into secondary bile salts so the microbes are involved if there’s

a problem with microbes let’s say you had an

antibiotic for example or a series of antibiotics

and you don’t have enough microbiome you could also become deficient in bile

thereby increasing your risk kidney stones

and gall stones so it’s not a really simple thing you have to understand

the whole picture you have to make sure you have some fiber

fluids your microbiome you want to make sure that you take care of your

your intestines and if you’re developing a gallstone or kidney stone

it wouldn’t hurt to start taking purified bile salts

to help to start binding these calcium and oxalates

as well as to break up some of this cholesterol all right

thanks for watching

hey we’re back with another amazing recipe no grains

no sugar totally keto there’s no suffering in keto absolutely not karen

and it’s an immune system builder absolutely
