Have you been treated for gallstones in the past? Or are you just worried that you're susceptible to getting them? Do you have some of the risk factors?
Here's a link to EmpowHer's gallstones page, as well as questions we've had on them in the past:
If you are already having pain from what you believe is a gallbladder attack or gallstones, please make an appointment with your doctor to have it checked out. If this is preventative, you want to be aware of your fats, carbs and proteins, and be sure you're getting enough essential fatty acids. You want a low-fat, high-fiber diet that emphasizes fresh produce and whole grains and that is low in animal fats and their byproducts.
Here's a link to the gallbladder diet, which is full of foods that help and foods that can harm:
