hey guys I’m back in this video we’re going to talk about gall stones and the massive confusion there is about it some people say well it comes from a high carbohydrate diet other people say it’s a low carb diet or a high fat diet high protein diet so here you are trying to get rid of your Golf Jones you don’t know what to do okay so a couple things you need to know gall stones are cholesterol stones okay it’s concentrated cholesterol all right it’s not calcium its cholesterol and bile bi le which is made by the liver and stored in the gall bladder has a couple functions one is it will help to dissolve fats and extract fat soluble vitamins number two it also keeps stones from developing so gall stones really are a bile deficiency so anything that will create a deficiency of bile will create gall stones all right let’s talk about the high carbohydrate diet first of all high carb diets increase insulin and by the way insulin converts sugar into cholesterol so you’re going to get a huge spike of cholesterol and this is one of the causes of gall stones high carb diets okay I’ll put a link down below really because of the high spike in insulin so if you’re trying to get rid of gall stones you definitely have to keep the insulin really really low number two high protein diets so anytime you consume excessive amounts of protein you also try your insulin which can cause high amounts of gall stones not to mention the strain on the liver and the gallbladder with too much protein okay now let’s talk about high fat diets now the main food that triggers the release of bile is saturated fats so it’s not true the high fat diets will cause golf tones unless you consume the high protein or the high carb now if you’re not used to it you don’t have the bile reserve to handle the amount of dietary fat that you’re consuming that can create a strain on your digestive system and bloating but not golf stones it’s more of a distension and strain on the gallbladder because it’s trying to keep up with the digestion it can also put a strain on the pancreas as well but high-fat diets are not one of the causes of gall stones especially if you’re not adding an lots of carbs and high levels of protein okay now let’s talk about a low-carb diet now doing a low-carb diet will definitely lower insulin which is a good thing but when you lower insulin you’re gonna mobilize a lot of fat release from the fat cell well guess what’s in the fat cell cholesterol and triglycerides so now we’re going to dump a lot of cholesterol into the system if your liver is fatty if your liver is damaged if your gallbladder is sluggish if you don’t have a gallbladder that can back up and lead to a fatty liver and also decrease your bile release thereby causing stones and this is why I always recommend consuming a lot of vegetables if you’re doing a low carb diet an unlimited amount of vegetables to keep the flow going to keep the liver cleansed as you dump all this fat through the system and through the liver so anytime you’re doing a little car and let’s say you’re doing higher fats with moderate amount of protein and not enough vegetables you potentially could plug up the liver and actually reduce the release of bile and cause of golf stones and this is why anytime you’re doing the ketosis diet you need to add a lot of vegetables to it okay a large amounts to keep your liver free of fat and keep yourself free of golf stones so if you feel even bloating because you’re consuming too much fat all you do is reduce that and increase more vegetables and those symptoms should go away so I hope that cleared up the confusions on what causes gall stones if you don’t have a gall bladder this still applies you might want to add some purified bile salts because the cause of gall stones is really low amounts of bile all right thanks for watching hey before you go definitely sign up for my free keto course I put a link down below it’s on messenger in facebook but it will give you all the basics it’s very quick it’s like three or four videos and it’s free check it out
