Gallstone and gallbladder inflammation

“I have excruciating pain.” “I didn’t know I had gallstones.” “After eating fatty foods I feel some pressure in my upper right abdomen.”

This or a similar experience is what people report with regard to their biliary disease symptoms.

The gallbladder collects bile acid that has been produced in the liver in order to digest the fat in foods. Gallstones arise when soluble substances crystallize in the bile acid. This can produce many small stones, such as biliary sand, or one or more large gallstones.

Those affected notice problems only when the gallbladder has been inflamed or when gallstones block the linked passages between the gallbladder and the small intestine. The physiology tries to transport the gallstones to the bowel, and this results in painful cramps.

What is the Vedic medicine point of view on biliary disease?

Metabolic residues develop continuously due to improper lifestyle. In the case of biliary disease, toxins (in Ayurveda called “Ama”) disturb the structure of bile acid. Many patients with bile inflammation also feel that stress and an unstable nervous system can serve as an amplifier or recurring trigger for the familiar symptoms.

In Ayurveda every patient is different and so each person’s biliary disease varies. The Ayurvedic approach at our Centre is holistic.

Vedic medicine offers different methods of treatment. After an in-depth medical diagnosis at our Centre, a comprehensive treatment plan is individually tailored for each patient with biliary disease.

They recognize that healing must take place on all levels. In the case of biliary disease, for example, an emphasis on elimination of toxins or the natural removal of gallstones can be recommended. It is important to bring all natural regulatory principles back into harmony. Nutritional recommendations and helpful exercises, as well as specific herbal mixtures tailored according to your needs, support a health-conscious lifestyle. In this way, your natural self-healing abilities can re-establish a healthy structure of bile acid and gallstones can be gradually melted away.
