Hi Jinger,

Thanks for your post!
Here are a few dietary changes and supplements that may help dissolve those pesky gallstones:

Take ascorbic acid (Vitamin C) tablets. Ascorbic acid converts cholesterol to bile acids. With less cholesterol levels and more bile acids, the gallstones will naturally dissolve slowly. You can take Vitamin C supplements as well as foods rich in Vitamin C such as oranges, sweet potatoes, tomatoes and broccoli.

Consume lecithin supplements. Lecithin is a lipid substance that aids in the breakdown of fat molecules from food and helps dissolve and prevent the formation of gallstones. Aside from lecithin supplements, eat foods that are rich in lecithin including tofu, lentils and grains.

Alter your diet. Reduce or eliminate the consumption of fried and fatty foods such as meat products and pastries. These types of foods are saturated in unhealthy cholesterol. The faster you lessen or eliminate your intake of these foods, the faster your liver can balance out the cholesterol levels, which in turn will dissolve any gallstones and prevent future ones from forming.

Drink 12 glasses of water every day. Water plays a vital role in dissolving gallstones. Since our body is made of mostly water, it is important that you maintain the balance of cells, enzymes and hormones. Water flushes out toxins through sweat, including unwanted cholesterol, which in turn dissolves the gallstones.

Eat food rich in fiber. Fiber binds cholesterol, bile and fatty acids together to form stool. It makes the stool bulkier and assists transporting cholesterol out of your body as waste, thereby slowly breaking down any gallstones in the gallbladder. Foods rich in fiber include oatmeal, wheat bread, corn and figs.
