The prevention and treatment of gallstone starts with diet

Modern people have a fast pace of life and tight work, which has also become an excuse for many people who do not eat breakfast. Irregular diet, uneven nutrition, coupled with long -seated, do not love sports or have no time to exercise, this lifestyle has spawned many patients with stone diseases.

Yang Mingbo, director of the Fourth Department of Liver Diseases of the Eighth Hospital of Xi'an, said that although it is called gallstones, gallstones are not real stones. Let's make an easy -to -understand metaphor. If we compare the gallbladder system as the river, then the gallstones can be metaphorized to the sediment deposited in the river. The sediment will slowly deposit, which will become larger, and in the end it will narrow the river. And the gallstones in our gallbladder are not the sand and stones we eat, but the abnormal bile component causes gall salt, lecithin decrease or increased cholesterol content, then cholesterol will be found to be analyzed. stone. In addition, if the biliary tract is infected, it is also easy to form stones. For example, the cholecystitis, bile tubeitis, etc., which we usually say, can also affect the abnormal secretion of bile components in the gallbladder when inflammation, thereby forming gallstones.

Traditional Chinese medicine believes that biliary is born with liver, and bile is turned into the liver. "East Medical Treasure Jian" cloud: "The liver's qi, leaked in bile, gathered into essence." Therefore, the lesions of the bile are closely related to the excretion function of the liver. The gallbladder is the heart of Zhongqing, and the losses of bile are dripped by rotting the water valley, and the benefits are descended. The excretion of bile secretion is always related to factors such as fatty and sweetness and emotional depression. Covered with fat and sweetness, spleen injuries, spleen injuries are healthy, and emotional depression hurts the liver, and liver injury is not good. Both can affect the stagnation of bile secretion and excretion. Therefore, the fatigue of fatness and affection, which is the relationship between the occurrence of gallstones.

Director Yang Mingbo reminded that the following groups are particularly prone to gallstones.

1. Obesity

The chance of obese people suffer from gallstones is three times that of normal weight. This is because the amount of cholesterol synthesis and obesity in obese people are positively correlated. The cholesterol saturation in their bodies is significantly greater than normal people, and the cholesterol is too saturated to induce stones to form. And obese people usually lack exercise, which is more likely to cause stagnation of bile.

2. High -fat diet

For a long time, people with high fat, high -calorie, and high sugar can easily cause cholesterol in the body and make cholesterol in bile too saturated, which is easy to form stones.

3. Like sweets

A large amount of sugar is intake, which will increase the synthesis of the glycogen and fat in the body, which will increase the cholesterol content in the bile, and eventually it is easy to form stones.

4. Do not eat breakfast

Because these people have a long empty time and the bile is not secreted, the bile will be stored in the gallbladder for a long time, so it is easy to form a silt, which will cause cholesterol in the bile to deposit in the gallbladder, which will slowly form stones.

5, biliary infection and other people

These people are prone to reduce the contraction function of the gallbladder or delay the gallbladder empty, which is conducive to the formation of gallstones.

One of the important factors of gallstone disease is diet, so its prevention and treatment should also start with diet. Director Yang Mingbo suggested that diet should be carried out in daily life. First, diet law. Note that avoid spicy and irritating foods, avoid high calories, high -fat, and high -sugar foods. Do not overeating. Also pay attention to breakfast, usually eat more vegetables and fruits. This can prevent weight gain, thereby reducing the formation of cholesterol crystals, and then effectively prevent the occurrence of gallstones. Second, pay attention to diet health. Limit the intake of total calories, eat less high oil and high -fat food, so as not to increase the risk of stones due to excessive cholesterol intake, or to form cholesterol gallbility polyps. You should usually eat more fruits such as bananas, apples, which will help dissolve stones. Eat more dietary fiber food. These foods can help the absorption of bile acid, inhibit the absorption of cholesterol in the intestine, promote its excretion, and reduce the occurrence of gallstone. Finally, control weight. The obese person should control the weight appropriately. Those who lose weight should pay attention not to lose weight too quickly, otherwise the proportion of bile components may be disordered, cholesterol is more likely to precipitate into stones; appropriate exercise, drinking more water, and regular living habits are correct preventive measures.
