Lessons from Jon Barron
Gallbladder Problems    In this week's excerpt from Lessons from the Miracle Doctors, Jon Barron talks about gallbladder problems.
 Alas, the poor gallbladder. Guilty by being found at the scene of the crime, it is the frequent target of the surgeon's knife because of gallstones and other problems. Over half a million gallbladders are removed each year in the United States, making it one of the most frequently performed operations. Women are four times more likely than men to get gallstones.
The gallbladder is not responsible for the production of gallstones—the liver is the culprit, or rather what we do to the liver. The gallbladder is merely a holding area for bile to be used in the digestion of fats and oils. But if our diets are too high in the wrong kind of oils, if we have allergies to dairy and eggs, low levels of stomach acid, too little fiber in our diets, stress, if the liver is not functioning properly, and so on, then the bile produced in the liver (a mixture of cholesterol, minerals, bile salts, pigment, and lecithin) is of a type and consistency that tends to quickly harden into "stones" before it can be passed out of the gallbladder.
Removing the gallbladder does not remove the problem—it merely removes the organ in which symptoms first manifest. Yes, it's true that after gallbladder removal you're unlikely to suffer from further gallstones. But on the other hand, you've now traded one problem for two new ones: - Since you never corrected the underlying problem of imbalances in the liver, these problems will just continue to get worse—eventually compromising the liver itself.
- By removing the gallbladder, you also remove its regulating effect on bile. That means that bile is continually dumping into your intestinal tract when it is not needed, and is available in only minimal amounts when it is needed. The net result is chronic digestive problems and probable long-term nutritional deficiencies.
Far better than removing the gallbladder is a seasonal liver/gallbladder flush combined with a periodic liver-rebuilding program."
