USE ORGANIC FOODS Fresh vegetable juices
as mentioned below (beet and cucumber especially) Drink lots of water - very important Garlic and garlic oil Avocados Artichokes Ginger
root Coconuts Grapes and freshly pressed grape juice (organic grapes only) are especially helpful Apples, apricots, berries, casaba melons,
currants, figs, guavas, lemons, pears, prunes Tumeric (organic) Cottage cheese - lowfat Fats to include: Include essential
fatty acids such as flax oil or borage oil. Depending on how severe or acute your gallbladder problem is at the moment, even this
may not be possible for you. Experiment slowly. You may have to do a gallbladder starter kit or gallbladder attack kit or gall-bladder
stone kit before you can add these. Most people, however, are able to eat small amounts. It shouldn't take more than a week on the
products before you feel relief enough to try this. If you have used the beet recipe, you have found that those three ingredients
in combination do not cause problems but help to move the stagnation in the gallbladder. I generally advise adding a teaspoon of flax
oil with vinegar or lemon juice to salads as a dressing. If you are in pain, you may be able to eat only the green soup recipe for
a few days. |

to Avoid: Most important is to avoid fried foods, fatty foods and particular types of fats like trans fats, hydrogenated fats,
partially-hydrogenated fats (read your labels) and saturated fats. (Order my newsletter on Good Fats vs Bad Fats for more in-depth
