  • Gallstones & Medicinal Mushrooms

  • Gallstones are just that, stones of different sizes and shapes created out of the bile components and located inside the gallbladder.

    About 80% of people with gallstones never have any symptoms.

    It is only when a gallstone blocks the bile duct that the person starts experiencing cramp-like pain in the upper right part of the abdomen, just behind and under the edge of the ribs. This pain is called a gallbladder attack or biliary colic. Cholelithiasis is the term referring to the presence of gallstones or to the diseases caused by gallstones.

  • What can cause the formation of gallstones?

    • Excessive amount of cholesterol in the bile – forms yellow stones
    • Excessive amount of bilirubin in the bile – forms brown or black stones
    • The bile duct is blocked and the gallbladder cannot empty the overconcentrated bile

  • What are the symptoms of gallstones?

    • Pain in the upper right part of the abdomen for longer than 5 hours in duration
    • Pain below the breastbone
    • Nausea
    • Vomiting
    • Pale or ash-like colour of the stool
    • Dark colour of the urine (like dark beer)
    • Skin turning yellow
    • Pain between the shoulder blades
    • Pain in the right shoulder
    • Fever

  • What are the complications of gallstones?

    • Inflammation of the gallbladder (cholecystitis)
    • Inflammation of the pancreas (pancreatitis)
    • Jaundice
    • Infection of a bile duct (cholangitis).

  • What are the risk factors of getting gallstones?

    • Family history of gallstones
    • Liver disease
    • Obesity
    • Overweight
    • Diabetes
    • Pregnancy
    • Birth control pills
    • Being a female
    • Rapid weight loss
    • Sedentary lifestyle (lack of physical activity)
    • High fat diet
    • Low fiber diet
    • Food lacking nutrients
    • High-cholesterol diet
    • Leukaemia
    • Hormone replacement medication

  • Recommended Medicinal Mushrooms:

    Medicinal mushrooms Reishi, Maitake and Cordyceps are particularly powerful in treating many illnesses where there is an inflammation occurring, because among other elements, they contain strong anti-inflammatory agents called triterpenes (the precursor to all steroids).

    The combination of these mushrooms would be most effective.
