Since the cases of people with gall bladder symptoms is increasing by year it pays to know what causes them and how to avoid them.

Gallbladder is a small organ below liver and it stores bile juice that is secreted by the liver. Bile juice contains enzymes that assist with emulsification of fats.

Whenever we consume a diet that is fat loaded, then the gallbladder contracts and releases bile into small intestine through a canal named common bile duct. The bile with its enzymes then helps in the digestion of fats.

Should the gallbladder function the way it should be, then no one is aware of the existence of this bile organ; however, there but sometimes the bile crystallizes and forms into gallstones which can create problems; occasional pain and nausea to as serious as bile duct inflammation and obstruction that lead to pancreatitis.

Why are gallstones formed?

• Gallstones are nothing but solidified bile within the gallbladder. But they are formed
• When the amount of cholesterol or pigment/s (bile consists of two pigments the bilirubin and the biliverdin) present in the bile are exceedingly high.
• Some components in bile itself that lead to bile stone formation.
• Pigment stones (from excessive bile pigments) are formed in people suffering from liver dysfunction and/or in those who have excessive bile pigments.

Incomplete ejection of bile juice due to low muscle tone will also promote formation of gallstones.

What are gallstone symptoms?

Gallstones that are present in the gallbladder often times are no problem. However problem comes if the gallstones are many in number or if they’re large in size. The resultant gallstone symptoms could be abdominal pain to nausea to vomiting to more severe symptoms warranting even removal of gallbladder.

The severe gallstone symptoms are due to blockage of the duct/s by gallstones that connect gallbladder to liver, pancreas or the intestine. The blocking of duct/s often times result in entrapment of bile juice and the digestive enzymes within the duct eventually resulting in inflammation of the gallbladder, pain in the abdomen and if it goes untreated may even lead to organ damage and even death.

How is the gallbladder symptoms addressed?

Gallstone symptoms should be treated because treatment curbs further progression of the symptoms besides alleviating the pain. If not treated, it results in acute cholecystitis wherein gallstones block the bile ducts that inflame the gallbladder. People with severe cholecystitis need hospitalization and treatment with antibiotics and pain meds. If the person doesn’t respond to the antibiotics and/or pain meds upon hospitalization excision of the gallbladder is done, but don’t panic with the word surgery because thankfully our body can do away without this organ.

Some diet and lifestyle habits that contribute to the risk of gall bladder symptoms:

Eating too much per meal

Eating too much and too often

Meal skipping

Stingy in drinking water

Excess protein in the diet

Excess intake of dairy foods

Smoking and alcohol

Refined carbs, sodas, junk foods and high-calorie processed foods.

Long term consumption of artificial sweeteners

Limiting the above could prevent gall bladder symptoms.
