Read and understand more about gallstones... prevention is much cheaper and safer than cure...

Here is another great article on gallstones.. from ehow health...

Gallbladder stones are formed in the gallbladder and are sometimes lodged in its tube ducts. The gallbladder is a small pear-shaped organ attached to the liver, which concentrates and stores bile. Bile is a digestive fluid continually released from the liver to break down fat and acid in half digested foods.

Gallbladder stones are mostly made up of cholesterol. When you consume too much cholesterol, compounds in the bile crystallize in the gallbladder, creating small, hard rocks called gallstones.

Learn how to lower your cholesterol in order to naturally dissolve and pvent gallstones..

1. Take ascorbic acid[vitamin C] tablets. Ascorbic acid converts cholesterol to bile acids. With less cholesterol level and more bile acids, the gallstones will naturally dissolve slowly. You can take Vitamin C supplements as well as foods rich in Vitamin C such as oranges, sweet potatoes, tomatoes and broccoli.
2. Consume lecithin supplements. Lecithin is a lipid substance that acids in the breakdown of fat molecules from food and helps dissolve and prevent the formation of gallstones. Aside from lecithin supplements, eat foods that are rich in lecithin including tofu, lentils and grains.
3. After your diet, reduce or eliminate the consumption of fried and fatty foods such as meat products and pastries. These types of foods are saturated in unhealthy cholesterol. The faster you lessen or eliminate your intake of these foods, the faster your liver can balance out the cholesterol levels, which in turn will dissolve any gallstones and prevent ones from forming.
4. Drink 12 glasses of clean water every day. Water plays a vital role in dissolving gallstones. Since our body is made of mostly water, it is important that you maintain the balance of cells, enzymes and hormones. Water flushes out toxins through sweat, including unwanted cholesterol, which in turn dissolves the gallstones.
5. Eat food rich in fiber. Fiber binds cholesterol, bile and fatty acids together to form stool. It makes the stool bulkier and assists transporting cholesterol out of your body as waste, thereby slowly breaking down any gallstones in the gallbladder. Foods rich in fiber include oatmeal, wheat bread, corn and figs.

Herbs to dissolve gallstones... milk thistle

Milk thistle, a flowering herb native to the Mediterranean region, is sometimes recommended for gallstone and gallbladder disease; however, much is unknown still about its dissolving effect on gallstones. The seeds and leaves of milk thistle have been shown to desaturate bile, a fluid made by the liver, and induce gallstone dissolution, according to the New York University Langone Medical Center website. Milk thistle possesses little or no toxicity and does not produce side effects even when administered repeatedly in large doses.

Herbs are still best for all types of treatment...Be closer to Mother Nature.. God endows with great plants for all purposes.. DO YOUR HOMEWORK...

Whether you have gallbladder disease, gallstones or other stressors on your gallbladder, certain herbs may help. Herbs like milk thistle, dandelion, turmeric, peppermint and artichoke leaf all help to support the gallbladder in different ways. Some also improve liver function. However, certain herbs that help your gallbladder to expel gallstones may be particularly risky, because the gallstones may become lodged in your bile ducts and rupture. As with any herbal remedy, you must consult your physician before beginning an herbal regimen.

Milk Thistle

If you have gallbladder problems such as gallstones, taking milk thistle extract may help. Milk thistle in capsule or tablet form may help to prevent gallstones, says the University of Michigan Health System. One study found that taking 420 mg of the silymarin contained in milk thistle daily helps to decrease the cholesterol levels in bile, which helps to prevent gallstones from forming. To support your liver and gallbladder, the University of Maryland Medical Center recommends taking 80 mg to 160 mg of standardized milk thistle seed extract two to three times daily.

If you have gallstones, peppermint oil may help to dissolve them, says the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center.

Artichoke

An extract taken from the leaves of the globe artichoke may help to support the gallbladder and liver, notes the University of Maryland Medical Center. In Germany, artichoke leaf is prescribed as an herbal remedy for gallbladder pain associated with gallstones. Artichoke leaf may help the gallbladder to contract and push out the gallstones, explains the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center. To support gallbladder function, take 250 mg to 500 mg two to three times per day of standardized globe artichoke extract.

Turmeric

Taking 300 mg three times daily of standardized turmeric extract may help to support your liver and gallbladder, says the University of Maryland Medical Center. Like artichoke extract, turmeric works to expel gallstones from the gallbladder. Turmeric is also used in Germany for gallbladder pain, notes the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center.

Dandelion

Dandelion is yet another herb that helps to treat gallbladder pain related to gallstones. Dandelion root contains bitter compounds that stimulate bile production in the gallbladder, explains the University of Michigan Health System. Dandelion may also help the body in processing fats, which helps to support the gallbladder and liver.
