2. It is advisable to eat foods that can inhibit the formation of gallstones: In addition to treatment, patients with gallstones should often eat foods that can inhibit gallstones to alleviate symptoms and prevent recurrence. Foods that can inhibit gallstones include ginger, cabbage head, spinach, green bamboo shoots, lotus root, onion, tomato, string beans, corn, green pepper, pumpkin, white radish, lotus root and so on. Among them, ginger has a strong cholagogic effect.
3. Pay attention to breakfast: Many people don't pay attention to breakfast and often skip breakfast. As everyone knows, this will not only affect their physical fitness, but also easily lead to gallstones. Why is it easy to get gallstones without breakfast? It is because fasting reduces bile secretion, reduces cholic acid content in bile and keeps cholesterol content unchanged, forming a kind of bile with high cholesterol; If the fasting time is too long and frequent, the cholesterol in bile will be supersaturated and deposited in the gallbladder to form crystals, resulting in stones. Therefore, in order to prevent gallstones, we must also pay attention to breakfast and eat well.
4. Eat foods containing vitamin A regularly: The shedding of gallbladder epithelial cells will promote the formation of gallstones. Vitamin A can maintain the integrity of gallbladder epithelial cells. There are many foods containing vitamin A, such as yellow-green vegetables, carrots, corn and cod liver oil. Carrots, in particular, can not only benefit the gallbladder, but also help the digestion and absorption of fat. Therefore, patients with chronic cholecystitis and gallstones should often eat foods containing vitamin A.
5. Eat less sugar: excessive intake of refined sugar in daily life is one of the important factors leading to gallstones. Because eating more sugar will increase the secretion of insulin in the body, and insulin will promote the synthesis of liver cholesterol, thus increasing the chance of gallstones formation.
