Cleansing The Liver And Gallbladder And Preventing Gallstones: How?

We hardly ever stop to think about how important it is to  cleanse  our liver and gallbladder, until it’s too late.

For example, until the doctor tells us that we have fatty liver or the much feared and painful gallstones. We consider that those who live in a developed country mostly follow an inadequate and harmful diet.

Obesity, cholesterol, the habit of consuming “junk food” fills our body with toxins and alters the functions of the organism. Hence  liver problems and gallbladder disorders.

How do you cleanse the liver and gallbladder and thus avoid gallstones or any other related pathology? We explain it to you below.

The importance of cleansing the liver and gallbladder

It doesn’t matter how old you are, whether you are overweight or have a healthy weight. Enjoying good liver health is essential for our body to function.

It allows us to feel good and prevent many diseases, including those that affect the gallbladder. But do you know why the liver usually gets sick?

Keep in mind that  regular consumption of sugar, caffeine and refined white flours causes all the B vitamins taken from other foods to be reduced. This results in a lower production of hydrochloric acid, basic for the digestive processes.

When a food is not processed adequately and therefore not well digested, gases linked to its decomposition are formed.

A series of toxins is therefore generated which, absorbed by the intestinal wall, pass directly into the bloodstream. All this ends up saturating and poisoning our liver.

After all, how important is the intestine for our health? As you know, it contains very beneficial strains of bacteria, which help us digest nutrients, as well as eliminate those in excess.

However, due to a wrong diet, as well as the abuse of antibiotics or other types of medicines, this bacterial flora is destroyed, favoring the proliferation of other harmful bacteria. Eventually, the colon gets sick and, once again, the liver becomes filled with toxins.

An excess of toxins in the body and a high level of fat is generally linked to a high level of “bad” cholesterol which impairs our basic functions, including those of the gall bladder.

Gallstones, caused by a buildup of cholesterol, can originate in the gall bladder or in the bile ducts of the liver.
