so today I want to discuss why nuts irritate gall bladder now some of the symptoms that people get when they consume not certain types of nuts right shoulder pain okay pain in the upper trap area right here pain in the right rhomboid headaches to the right side why because the gall bladders look at it on the right side and the gall bladder being underneath the right ribcage sometimes can swell up and react to certain nuts I’m going to explain why in a second and that can irritate a nerve that goes on the right side called the phrenic nerve that goes all the way up to the third cervical vertebra right here so if you actually are distended and create a pressure on the nerve down here you can affect on the right side to the point where it can literally even cause your neck bones to rotate out of place and create a pinched nerve that goes right down the right side the way I know that for a fact is because I’ve worked on so many people that come in my office with the right shoulder pain we change your diet we do a little work on the gallbladder instantly the pain goes away and it doesn’t come back so if you have right-sided problems it could be than nuts that you’re consuming but it’s not necessarily the nuts it’s what’s in the nuts mainly something called lectins lectins are considered an anti nutrient it’s like a natural insecticide certain seeds and nuts and vegetables have a protective mechanism against pests and insects and lectins is one of them some people are not even fazed by it but you have a certain percentage of population that are highly irritated by lectins this video I just want to kind of narrow in on the nuts but in other videos I’ll expand on that and talk about other foods that this would be involved with so if you wanted to reduce the levels of lectin of course you can avoid the food you can use a pressure cooker to cook the food you can soak the nuts overnight and it’s called germination I’ll put a link down below for more information on that you can sprout or ferment so there are different ways of reducing lectins the symptom of lectins is basically inflammation bloating nausea ass okay all right so now let’s talk about the foods that have the highest amounts of lectins versus the lowest amount okay starting with the peanut now a peanut is not an actual nut it’s a legume but I’m putting in this category because most people think peanuts as a nut okay peanuts are have high amounts of lectins okay so if you consume them you may find more irritation in the gallbladder area cashews are high abundance and really I’m doing this video on those people that are supporting the gallbladder and doing whatever you can to improve your digestion but you still have problems now what’s interesting is the bile duct okay which is connected your gallbladder has receptors for lectins so lectins have the capacity to target the bile duct and irritate that area if you trigger it with any of these foods right here okay so almonds unfortunately are higher in lectins now but realize you may not be sensitive to these so you have to test the waters okay pine nuts hazelnuts and also seeds like sunflower seeds pumpkin seeds yeah interesting okay these are relatively low in lectins pecans walnuts macadamia nuts pistachios flax seed hemp seed olives coconut avocado and Brazil nuts these are just suggestions so if you find that you just switch over to these and you stop consuming these and you get better chances are it’s because of the lectins alright guys thanks for watching so if you want more knowledge on how to create a healthy body subscribe now and get daily notifications daily notifications that sounds weird well I’ll just remind you on a daily basis how about that
