The causes of gallbladder stone formation are more complex, but changes in the composition of the bile, especially the content of bile salts and cholesterol in the bile, are an important factor in the formation of gallstones. Under normal circumstances, these two are kept in a certain proportional relationship in bile. Cholesterol is in a dissolved state and is excreted with the bile. If there is too little bile salt or too much cholesterol, the two lose their normal proportional relationship and the cholesterol is in a supersaturated state, and the excess cholesterol in the bile precipitates and forms stones. On the other hand, the occurrence of gallbladder stones is also related to the body type. Gallbladder stones tend to occur in the 3F group (forty, female, fatty) – 40 years old obese women. It is worth mentioning that gallbladder stones are also closely related to lifestyle habits. How to reduce the occurrence of gallbladder stones from changes in lifestyle habits? First, the diet should be regular, not overeating or starving a full meal, not snacking Breakfast should not be skipped, regular eating (three meals a day) is the best way to prevent stones, because the gallbladder is full of bile when fasting, the gallbladder mucosa absorbs water to make the bile thicken, at this time cholesterol/lecithin large bubbles are easy to form, the viscosity of bile also increases, finally forming bile mud. If you eat, when food enters the duodenum, the gallbladder contraction hormone is secreted in response, causing the gallbladder to contract, and then a large amount of bile containing bile sludge is discharged into the intestine. Thus stone formation can be prevented. Maintaining the contractile function of the gallbladder prevents long-term bile stagnation. Drink a glass of milk every night or eat a fried egg for breakfast to make the gallbladder contract and empty regularly, so as to reduce the time of bile staying in the gallbladder. Second, choose a reasonable diet structure Avoid high-fat, high-calorie eating habits and maintain a good weight. Eat proper fiber-rich food to improve cholesterol excretion and prevent the formation of stones. Third, maintain the habit of exercise: avoid prolonged sedentary posture, such as prolonged use of computers, prolonged watching TV after dinner, etc. Fourth, pay attention to dietary hygiene: biliary ascariasis is one of the causes of gallstone disease. Fifth, actively treat related diseases: such as cirrhosis of the liver. Patients with cirrhosis have lower estrogen inactivation function in the body and higher estrogen level, coupled with low gallbladder contraction function in cirrhosis, poor gallbladder emptying, bile duct varices, elevated bilirubin in the blood and many other factors can cause gallstones. Six, vegetarians should be properly supplemented with lecithin normal cholesterol and bile salts, lecithin in a certain proportion of the mixture of micro-colloid suspension in the bile, when this ratio is broken, it will form gallstones. Some vegetarians do not consume enough lecithin, and the excessive fiber in vegetarian diets prevents the reabsorption of bile acids, which reduces the concentration of bile salts in the bile. Insufficient lecithin and bile salts lead to an imbalance in the ratio, resulting in the formation of stones. Seven, avoid multiple pregnancies There are significantly more women than men with gallstone disease, which may be related to estrogen. During pregnancy, the biliary tract function of women is easily disturbed, resulting in weak contraction of smooth muscle and retention of bile in the gallbladder, and the relative increase of cholesterol in the blood during pregnancy makes precipitation easily occur, which greatly increases the chance of forming gallstones, and the incidence is higher in women with multiple pregnancies.
