Dr Ekberg do you have any videos on the Appendix?
I love your videos and appreciate all the work you put into them. I would really love to hear what you have to say about the appendix because it is also assumed to be of no use to people. Perhaps a future video idea? 😃 Thanks again!
@Hakim Mohamad there are supplemental means: Bile salt boosters to help facilitate the function of fat metabolism in the body. Also creating a dietary/supplementation plan in correcting possible vit\mineral deficiencies can help functional imbalances.
So now that mine is gone, how do I make up for it? I’m now taking thyroid meds to make up for lack of conversion and I want to know more about how to correct the “down stream” affects after it has been removed.
Have you thought about also posting your videos to RUclips competitor Rumble? They don't have any videos like yours, so you could reach a new audience.
I had gall bladder problems in the early 2000's. I went to the emergency room 2 times and they couldn't figure out what was wrong. The 3rd time I went to the emergency room and they couldn't find anything, I said 'why don't you check my gall bladder'. They laughed, but did a scan and were surprised that I was right. I went in to the hospital in 2005 for gall bladder removal. In 2008 I started having the same symptoms. I went back to the hospital and was told that it was my gall bladder. Hmm, I said. That's funny. I had it removed in this hospital in 2005. Well, you should've seen the look on the tech's face. She went and got the head of radiology and he couldn't explain why I had a gall bladder. I called my regular doctor and she actually told me that it had 'grown back and I would need it removed again'. I laughed at her. I found out that birth control pills effect the gall bladder, so I stopped taking them. A week later I was symptom free and I have also never trusted a doctor since then.
Your doctor obviously needs to go back to medical school. I can't believe she said your gallbladder had grown back! As a nurse, my trust in many doctors no longer exists.
Such a familiar story. I won’t ever trust a doctor again. They don’t listen to patients. Only I live in my body and I listen to it when it tells me something is wrong.
Thank you MoCaineal for sharing your story. Glad you figured it out despite your doctor. Keep it up! 😄
"I have also never trusted a doctor since then"...Best decision you made right there.
So any idea what they removed? Did they do a biopsy on it?
Suffered 8 years with extreme symptoms and was told it was stress, anxiety, depression, and attention seeking behavior. I have changed doctors so many times and finally my newest PCP had a second HIDA scan done with ejection fraction and they could see pain. My gallbladder was functioning at 17%. My PCP arranged an appointment with the surgeon and in less than 2 weeks my gallbladder came out. The surgeon said the surgery was justified because the gallbladder was so scared from years of attacks. My digestive issues are not perfectly resolved, but I am finally feeling so much better! I got so choked up thanking both my doctor and my surgeon for finally believing me. Now I’m looking to take care of what’s left of me because surgery is hard to recover from at an older age.
Slim chance you will reply but I have gallbladder sludge and inconsistent feeling of out of it like I’m there but not the mentally and they said it’s my anxiety and depression same as yours what symptoms did you have did you also feel like you mentally wernt all there like it felt like almost 3rd person I will have good days and bad days and chest tightness and increased acid reflux hope you see this thankyou
I cannot tell you how much my health has improved since I found you Dr. Ekberg. You have taught me more in 6 months than I have learned in a lifetime. 71, no meds and feeling great!
My name is Marcia
This is so great to hear. I turn 50 next year and my goal is to stay off the meds and feel great in retirement!
I had sudden bouts of excruciating pain for over 10 years. They usually came on in the afternoon or evening and would last up to eight hours. Every position was torture. So i used to kneel on the floor so nothing could touch my stomach. I always thought these attacks were trapped wind. Anyway i started getting bouts of going instantly freezing cold throughout my body. It happened at work once and paramedics were called as i couldnt stop shivering from the cold ( it was a hot day). Paramedics knew this was a sign of infection . I was on an antibiotic drip in hospital for 10 days but the doctor said i looked so ill still that they would remove my gallbladder, rather than keep trying to treat it in the future. The scan showed gallstones in my gallbladder. Every time i ate a lot of fat it would set off the bloating and chronic pain. So glad they took my gallbladder out, been pain free ever since (10 yrs)
At 76 yrs of age my husband was diagnosed with gallbladder cancer. That very long ongoing traumatic experience could write a book-made-into-a-movie! He survived for 13 more years (before emphysema took him from us).
We were told his cancer had 80% chance of coming back but it never did. Because of his age and frailty they wouldn't give him chemo or radiation. . . But his body craved fruit constantly which he would gorge on. We always believed the fruit is why the cancer didn't come back.
Hi there just wanna höw your husband survived for 13 years ? Did He undergo Operation or something ? My möm have a Problem with gall bladder but cant Undergo open surgery because of her heart .thNks for your response
Vegan diets have been shown to help cancer. My sister had cancer and went vegan.
@@cristinakraft1755 ... yes his gallbladder and part of his liver were surgically removed.
Sorry your Mom is not doing well.
Has her doctor considered lazer surgery?
I do hope she is feeling better soon.
@@fatpinkteddy And did she survive? Thrive? Without that information how can we take your advice?

This interconnection between the thyroid and the liver/gallbladder is of utmost importance to me, to understand a great deal of my health problem. Not in a million years one of the more than 9 specialists doctors would have had explain it to me. Or care to do so. Thank you Dr. Ekberg you are a blessing.
Indeed!
Yes I love this doctor. He is a humanitarian God bless him. Only one other person told me this. He is an herbalist.
There's a interconnection between the thyroid and gallbladder ? Please how can I find out more?

Thank you Leonor Berdichevsky. I really appreciate your feedback. Glad you liked it. 😄
Tell that to my rabbi. 😂🤣😂🤣
We all knew that!!
Also some doctors tend to think that our appendix
is just a spare part too!!?🤔
@@drekberg I wish you were my Doctor! I'm currently having Gallbladder issues, aside from having Hyperthyroidism and Graves. I was diagnosed in ER 2 yrs ago after having a severe attack. The ER ran the necessary tests but really didn't explain anything. She simply said" I didn't need it, and to see Gastroenterologist asap". I don't have Insurance on my job so I can't afford to have it removed until I'm insured. 🤔God bless you for explaining everything in detail!🙏❤
As a healthcare provider, I can attest to the fact that Dr Ekberg has provided me with the most amazing health information ever. He's a brilliant and compassionate human who is changing lives day by day.
Outstanding!!! Thank you, Dr Sten. 💖 💯😍
Thank you Claire Hachey. I really appreciate your feedback. That means a lot 😄
SO true!! I wish everybody would listen to him.
Sorry to say, but the USA has no healthcare. We have a system of greed, corruption, ignorance, fraud and full blown nonsense. Period. Just look at the last year as an example.
@@eugeniustheodidactus8890 Well, we had the leader of our country smacking down our what our medical experts were trying to advise us, so.........
I almost died passing a stone that got lodged into my liver duct. Pancreatitis as a result, by the time I got into the ER I had about an hour to live. Went in Sunday night, woke up Friday afternoon. I was 23. They said it was from caffeine. I had it removed and I've never had a problem with digestion since. I used to suffer horribly from constipation and I haven't had that problem since. Also, it's like one of those things where you don't know how crappy you feel until it's removed. I remember being like 'wow! I literally feel so much better!' I had no idea how sick I was feeling until the problem was removed. I don't regret having it removed at all. That was 16 years ago.
Hi, I'm glad you feel better now. I'm curious, was your caffeine intake high? Was it just coffee or energy drinks too?
I’m curious too since I drink coffee every day 😅
@@xdgs567z I think we'll be waiting a while for the answer 😂
@@scorps192 it’s probably a combination of other things also, just control your diet and drink plenty of liquids 👍

Ages old ayurveda
I do gallbladder and liver flushes every few years.
I'm keeping mine. 7 family members got theirs removed. I refuse.
Thank you Dr.
Could you please tell me how you did your flush ?
Same! Everyone around me got them removed ive been surviving with the flushies every 2 years!
@@cheloumiss3089you need virgin olive oil, grapefruit, edible Epsom salt, water
You drink 1 cup of epsom salt every 2 hrs 2 times. Drink 1/2 cup oil, 1/2 cup grapefruit juice. Lay on your stomach the whole time (so preferably at night) then do the 2hrs 2 times epsom drink again. Should flush out the stones
Me too, but unfortunately I had such a large stone that couldn't pass I had no choice but surgery.
I did 3 flushes and I felt amazing. However after the 3rd one I started getting the symptoms of what Dr Ekberg mentioned with the pain between abdomen and right side as well as upper back pain and plenty of belching after meals. It's been like this for a year and I've not braved another liver flush as I feel it may have contributed to the issue somewhat. Wondering what I did wrong as I made sure to also open up my pathways for this detox.
I used to train doctors in Applied Clinical Nutrition. I have to commend you Dr Eckberg, as being the BEST instructor to the public that I have ever heard lecture! You’re such a great blessing to the world of people who want to understand their body and health , Holistically!
Dr. Ekberg, you have changed my life! Lost 40 lbs., because of your educating me. Thanks! I'm 72 and feeling great!
That’s incredible! Congratulations!
@@Heatherrenee424 Thanks. I have since lost more weight and I am amazed at how great I feel.
@@e.rinnooi4603 how did you do it...? What advice did he give that helped you..?
@@genad236 I quit sugar in everything, fasted, apple cider vinegar in the morning, ate a lot of protein but not from meat, no soda or sugary drinks mostly water...walked a couple of miles a day but that came later as I was feeling better, and of course Dr. Ekberg! .My whole life has changed. And I have never been happier! Good luck hope this helped
@@genad236 Check out his videos on type 2 diabetes and intermittent fasting. This is what I've been doing and have also lost about 25 lbs in 4 months and brought my A1C down from 8.3 to 6.9 (so far.) I'm still on the way but feel a lot better and am losing weight without feeling stressed or constantly desiring food and snacks.
I was having severe pain under my ribs, I’ve never felt such pain in my life; thought I was having an heart attack, taken into hospital had an emergency operation my gallbladder was badly infected full of pus and stones,I wouldn’t wish this on everyone it was horrendous, I seem to be doing ok now fingers crossed no more issues 🙏
I have it right now. It’s agony.
what symptoms did you have in the weeks prior to you going into this acute state of ill health please?
Thank you for sharing! I took my 87 year old mom to the ER for the 4th time in the past 2 years for excruciating stomach pain and each time, it was her gallbladder and the ER docs recommended cholecystectomy but she is very traumatized by past surgeries in abdomen. This last ER trip was the worst on May 15th. We now have surgery scheduled for 3rd week of June. Praying she will be relieved and in every other aspect, she is active and healthy! 🙏🏽❤️
I had bought every kind of naturopath remedies for her but think she's inconsistent about the regimen. 😢
Just got my gullbladder removed May 28, 2024. I had been suffering for a good 2 months, no matter what I ate I would have an episode of extreme heartburn, sweating, pain, cramping, diarrhea and or constipation. I had had a previous attack in June of 2023. Lost about 30 lbs and felt horrible. I'm mending now but looking into using supplements like ox bile, selenium and D3k2.
I’m struggling with this now. Was in A&E over the weekend. Never felt pain like it in my life.
Great explanation of the anatomy and physiology of the gall bladder but would of been great to hear what to do about fixing the issue.
Best explanation of why we have a gallbladder, and it’s not to be eating a low-fat diet. I noticed everybody on a low-fat high carb diet gets her gallbladder taken out.
Everyone I know who has gone super low fat has had to have their gallbladder removed!
I have always felt the same as you. I am 74 and still have my gallbladder. Over the years, I have watched what bothers it and stopped eating those foods. I started taking milk thystle, etc.
What kinds of foods bother your gallbladder? I’m 42 and am starting to have issues with mine. I don’t want it removed :(
@@kellys7018
Hi my gallbladder is fully compacted but I have chosen not to have it removed. When I get really bad from eating all the wrong foods. I will drink 1tblspn of apple cider vinegar in a glass of water first thing in the morning then wait about 30 min before I have anything. I eat more healthy and reduce sugar,cakes bad food. It usually comes good.
@@kellys7018 .. i had a terrible attack over a year ago and they wanted to remove my gb..i said no.. did a tonne of research.. started taking TUDCA and gold coin grass to help thin my bile.. i think a big problem as Dr Sten says is that the gb becomes sluggish cuz the bile gets thick..it can be from too much fat or too little fat which i think was my case.. it needs frequent flushing.. i learned i have 2 stones which do move around and when i had my attack one of the stones was near the neck of the gb which is why the attack occured.. now they are both in the fundus or body of the gb which is ok..they can still move around but i think if you keep your bile thin and eat healthy fats it will go a long way.
Use Stone Free
I had a bad biology teacher in HS, told us there's no use in having a gallbladder. In his case, he had the gall, but he didn't have the bladder!!
LOL! I see what you did there! 👈👆👈🤓
🤣👏🏾💯
Yeah:)good one.
Very funny, by-gally.
1) pain in the abdomen
2) right shoulder and neck pain
3) fat intolerance
4) bloating, gas and indegestion belching and burping
5) Jaundice, nausea, vomitting, lack of appetite
6) constipation or diarrhea
7) pale and floating stools
8) vitamin deficiency ADEK vision changes, night blindness
9) Small Intestant Bacterial Overgrowth
10) Hypothyroidism
I have had thyroid issues for 22 years and been diagnosed with hypothyroidism for almost 20 years. I have had 3 Endocrinologists and not one of them has explained the thyroid, liver, and gut connection to the conversion of T4-T3.
What is crazy is I have just been told to change my diet to a low fat diet and prescribed Synthroid.
I am so glad I watched this video.
On a side note, my current Endocrinologist told me I am almost at the obese range because my of my BMI at the time : 5’8” at 190lbs. I have been lifting heavy weights for 35 years, eat healthy, exercise, drink a gallon of water a day, and have a consistent sleep schedule- 7-8 hours each night. I don’t have much fat on my body. The BMI scale is completely outdated, especially if they don’t measure any body fat.
I have been on the Keto diet for two months now weight 180.
My husband refused to have his removed. It was full of stones. To ease his symptoms we started juicing greens with lemon, apple, apple cider vinegar, cucumber, and celery. Sometimes we add beets, pineapple and or blueberries. I believe this has helped me with my vitamin A absorption.
Can you tell me more. I'm currently in that situation.
Did you try Chanca Piedra

How are things now?
I turned gone the op too I had pain yesterday first time in over a year I d eaten some junk so my fault!
I had gallstones 25 years ago. The first 2 times I went to emergency, the first doctor said I had an ulcer, second doctor upped the ulcer meds. The third time I went the doctor took one look at me an ordered an ultrasound which showed I had a duct full of stones and had to have emergency surgery. I am very grateful that the doctor did laparoscopic surgery and zapped the stones instead of removing my gallbladder, he did not believe in removing organs. I’m also grateful for this video as well especially when he mentioned about the nerve that goes up the neck, I’ve had issues with the right side of my neck for years and I know there’s something up with my gallbladder and liver right now because I can feel it, there’s no other way to say it other than I just know.
Thanks. And now you can research on how to take care of those problems.

Is your doctor still working?
Your lucky your remove your gallbladder. Me at this time Im suffering from pain because I have a gallstone. I cannot afford to go to the doctor bcause of financial problem.

Funny enough yesterday I was looking how to send you a message to ask nicely to do a video about gallbladder. I truly believe that gallbladder has a bigger role in health than we like to believe. Respect, Dr Ekberg!
Thank you Mihaela Jianu. How awesome is that. There are no coincidences. Coincide means come together or happen together. 😄
What an amazing teacher. If we all had someone like him teaching us in schools and colleges, imagine how healthier and wiser we all would be. Thank you so much
I had my gall bladder removed and haven’t had any issues. I actually wish I wasn’t so hasty and had learned about intermittent fasting sooner but what’s done is done.
I had my gallbladder removed almost 21 years ago. It was the BEST thing I ever had done. What’s different from what this doctor says is I had severe pain in the middle of my back. I have absolutely no problems with any food to this day
I feel the pain in my back for a couple of weeks havent had a checkup yet some symptoms i already feel as well and i think of a lot of things with this back ache untill i saw ur comment about gallbladder and back pain associated with it now i know my case
This is what I'm feeling as of now. Alot inflammation pain thru out my back.
@@PhajEsTeeb fatty liver. You can still get stones stuck w/o gallbladder
So true. By the time it’s an emergency, it cannot be fixed. My mom was in that situation.
Yup had severe pain under shoulder blade. Didn't want it taken out they said it had to happen.
I had mine removed 10 years ago so I almost didn't watch this....until I heard your words "the gallbladder is a super important yet misunderstood organ"...you had me hooked, line and sinker, as always...love your lectures. We learn the most useful information. Thanks Dr. Ekberg as always.
Thank you LisaR Nichols. There is always something to learn. You have the right attitude.😄
Are you having some problems after you surgery
I was on a low fat diet for years and had a bad gallbladder. Foods that set it off were spicey foods like cinnamon, cloves, mint and anise.
The best video here, explaining this gallbladder problem. I had mine removed 7 years ago. The past 2 years, I've been having a lot of stomach issues. Too many doctors act as if, you don't need your gallbladder BUT, they are wrong!! Thank you! I've subscribed.
My gallbladder is full of 'sludge', but I didn't get the classic symptoms. Mine were nausea, loss of appetite, diarrhea and a distended stomach. Now, 2 months into a Ketogenic diet my symptoms have all improved and I can't wait to get my next scan in 5 months to see if anything's looking better! 😊
So is it? Looking better?

I used Chinese medicine to remove gallstones and sludge. Another way is to have 1 or 2 tablespoons of lemon juice (drink through a straw) followed by the same amount of olive oil everyday for 3 weeks. Gallstones are caused by lack of good oils (fats)

I had my gallbladder full of sludge, I was living on antacid tablets, so I did a gallbladder flush. I removed thousands of stones. I felt so much better. I now do a flush at least once a year.
How did you do this?
This is the BEST explanation video in the 50 videos I’ve probably watched about understanding eh gallbladder, liver, and digestive function. Very precise, detailed, and easy to follow and understand. THANK YOU!!!
I agree with you Dr. everything is in your body for a reason but western Dr. love to remove problems instead of trying to fixing them if possible. I enjoy your videos thank you for your help.
You are welcome John D S. It was my pleasure 😄
That, or they shrug and tell you to "live with it" when it's something they can't write a prescription for.
They don't want to cure you, just give a pill to mask the symptoms; then another pill to mask the side effect of the first; etc.
I am ready to move where you are so i can have you as my doctor ALWAYS. May the Universe Bless you for all the healing you do ❤
This is really enlightening and important. Bloating, stomach pain, malformed stool, and hypothyroid symptoms seem to go hand in hand, suggesting a common underlying cause. Can you do a video on things to eat for a healthy gallbladder?
I second that.
Or a video explaining what to do if your gallbladder is low functioning.
That was all I waited for while watching this video, but let's just say, I was left hanging
Yes!! That's what I am needing as well, please let us know what to eat now! That's why I came to this video.
@@shaylafowler6183 you need digestive bitters. Dandelion root tea and dandelion greens are very helpful. Viridian also do a digestive bitters tincture which stimulates bile production before a meal. Dandelion leaves are very bitter so if you can mix a few leaves in with your normal salad. Hope that helps x
Dr.Ekberg is one of the clearest speakers that I have ever heard and seen. God bless you sir. 👍
This is very informative! I am currently greatly suffering from my galbladder possibly from sludge, especially at ovulation and menses 😢. I wish this video would tell us the solutions
Oh my god me tooooo. I didn’t realize it till I read your comment!!! But it’s true. It’s happening now!!!!

Amazingly fragile for some
My GB problems increased for about 6 weeks after I started a keto diet but then it cleared up. I believe my GB became sludgy because my high carb diet had little use for all the bile salts just waiting for something to act on. Once I started my high fat diet, my GB now got in high gear and started working the way it should have . It needed 6 weeks to clear out the sludge. No problem since then with my GB
So are you saying fatty foods can almost help?
This is an interesting take on it, you had a lazy gallbladder. Unless others have the same, I dont think eating high fat diet will work. But Im glad it did for you. :) I hope to find out if my gallbladder is causing my misery next week. In fact Im going to instruct my doctor to look into it.
You need fat in the diet not high carbs..... The fat will encourage your gallbladder to activate the bile that is required to emulsify the fat and therefore flush out any stones and other issues
This is pretty encouraging. I'm on Carnivore and taking TUDCA and having alot of discomfort
@@AnnaMaria-zm8cv the bile is released to break down fats so high fat diet might really fix the issue just like it did for her :)
If God put it there , and He did, we need it! : )

I had my gallbladder removed after many trips to the ER, they kept looking for gallstones which I didn’t have. After getting so sick and ended up in the hospital, they figured out my gallbladder just didn’t work. It took years many ER trips.
I appreciated this video. Im getting my gallbladder removed, but still agreed with everything in this video. But I just don’t want anxiety of having an attack anymore as I have very young children I need to tend to.
I'm going in next week to have my gall bladder removed, I'm feeling a little nervous, I'm 69, hoping all goes well ❤
Watch dr. Berg
Excellent presentation and quite helpful in understanding the mysterious gall bladder. Will you make a video on how to keep our gallbladders healthy?
He does say things about this, such as SIBO and less bile. Correct these with a good diet is a good start.
Make sure you don't eat low fat diet which promotes formation of gallstones. If you don't eat enough fat with your meals, take a spoonful of olive oil twice a day. Lack of fat prevent bile from being released and that bile eventually forms stones and congests the gallbladder.

Ive had gallbladder issues since i was a teenager. Cannot have greasy food. Thank you for the info on the connection of hypothyroidism and gallbladder which I have now. I do get the piercing and burning sensation above my bellybutton. Now I need to concentrate on finding natural products to cleanse the gallbladder. Love how you explain things for all to understand.
Take bile salts
eat bitter herbs and salads with:
dandelion - endives - escarole - I eat them every day raw of course with fresh garlic and fresh onion. I make my own salad dressing, never buy already made salad dressing it has preservatives.
Pineapples and apples help with stones
D-limonene capsules. You’ll thank me later.
Pain above the belly button or below the breastbone. Pay attention to the pancreas . That area relates to pancreas/ very related to gallbladder.
Ok. The problems/symptoms. Now, let's hear about solutions/proper functioning and care.
Ginger tea. Exercise. Hydrate. Good diet. Broccoli. Cauliflower.

A retired nurse told me to eat granular lecithin from the health food store. I took a large spoonful every hour along with hot tea and lemon.
It would always work! The pain would stop after chewing down 2 or 3 big spoonfuls. I don't know how or why it worked.. I was just grateful it did.
I used to put lecithin in my smoohies years ago. I has choline in it which helps to mobilize fats. Just bought some, glad to hear it works!
Thank you dr Ekberg. I am very lucky and privileged to have you helping me with my current gallbladder and digestive issues. If I had gone to an allopathic doctor I’m sure my gallbladder would have been removed. Hope you hit a million subscribers here in April !
You are welcome CHHSFans. My pleasure. I'll take April, but it looks like May😄
@@drekberg Hi Doctor, I just seen your video now after I had a horrible attack a couple days ago and haven't eaten in two days now. I also had chills after but not really fever. This morning my urine was brownish! Will my pee go back to normal on it's own? What can I do?
@@AHJ135 did you have gallstones
@@icediamonds11 I had a 3.5 inch gallstone and slush moving around and irritating the gallbladder. It felt really bad. I had it out a month and half ago. It was infected and had scared wall. 😱
This is one of the most important videos you have ever made, you are a wonderful person
Thank you 22nd account Due to censorship. I really appreciate your feedback. 😄
My exact feeling about body parts. If it wasn’t necessary God wouldn’t have put it in. He was the biggest multi mechanical engineer.
Exactly! Agree 💯% 🙏
He was a pretty shity engineer

Romans 14:11 It is written: "As surely as I live,' says the Lord, 'every knee will bow before me; every tongue will acknowledge God.'"
@@johncameron6864 I am sorry you feel that way. When I think about all the physical functions of a human body and how each system supports all the other systems and organs working simultaneously to have the physical, mental and emotional health is amazing. There are still things unknown to science about GOD’s creation, the HUMANS.
Well said!
As usual, jaw drops open amazed at the clarity of the discussion, putting all the pieces into prospective - Thank You Dr. Ekberg.
This is the best liver & GB explanation I’ve seen.
27 months ago I started lchf and IF due to various health issues. I didn't know it at the time but my gallbladder was not working well and was full of .5cm stones. I'd been having a few attacks a year for a couple of years. The large amounts of fat consumption on keto really brought on multiple attacks. As soon as it was diagnosed the doctors wanted it out despite the fact that it wasn't inflamed and the wall was thin. I did my research and decided to keep it. I made some changes in the types of fat and massaged it daily. Despite it improving the surgeon still wanted it out but I continued to refuse. It continues to improve and I've only had 1 mild attack in 1.5 years. Thanks again Doc.
Thank you Stephan C for sharing your story. That is great. I am glad you are being proactive and it is improving. Keep it up! There are some supplements that can help called chanca piedra as well as bile salts. Good luck 🙂
@@drekberg Thanks doc. I'm aware of bile salts but not chanca piedra. Thanks for the tip 👍
Is a mafnesium sulfare a bile salt ?

Great video. Too late for me as my gallbladder was removed 15 years ago. Now I'm on a Keto diet and coping but I think the lack of gall bladder is having an effect. Would be great to have a video on how to approach a KETO lifestyle without a gallbladder!
check out tudca salts.
TUDCA!!! I take it everyday because I don't digest fats well, it's the best supplement ever.
Watch Dr Eric Berg's videos he covers all of that and everything else
Nicely done Doctor. Hospital stay puts the gallbladder at risk and a surgeon will GLADLY remove it;only if you let them! Once again,treating a symptom instead of the cause. Void of any REAL healing. That comes form hood analysts like yourself and our adherence to the great advice y’all bring. Thanks for making it crystal clear Doc!!
My doctors said I need my gallbladder out, no stones but sludge. My eye sight has gone down hill rather quickly. I can't absorb vitamin D. I have so far held on to my gallbladder. I know you need it. Thanks Dr. Ekberg, you convinced me.
What did you do about?
@@suiyen After waiting it out, I had it removed 11/6/2023.
I salute you Dt Sten, for you are audible enough for people to understand you.thanks for the clipp.
You are welcome Zaynab Mohammed. It was my pleasure 😄
We are so fortunate you create these impressive videos with this extremely high level of quality about really pragmatic knowledge. You've earned our utmost appreciation.
He is not a medical doctor.
@@destinationunknown4959 doesn’t stop him from knowing what he’s talking about and he backs up all his information with facts!!!!
Do you know any medical Drs that do that??? I don’t
I am very happy that I found you! I love all your presentations too!
Thank you sharon grove. I really appreciate your feedback and so glad that you liked it. The purpose of my channel is to explain things better than other channels and help people understand the principles. I spend so much time on it because when we get "the why" and the mechanism we become empowered for life . Comments like yours makes it all worthwhile. 😄
I got my gallbladder removed on the 10th last week. Went to the ER on Nov. 8 (took 2 months to get the surgery to work some things out w/ my insurance). I wish I came across this video beforehand as this had been the most informative I have came across! I had one big gallstone & one broken into smaller pieces.
What size was it
@@giftbugatti2218 biggest gallstone is 2-3 centimeters. I should’ve corrected my wording. There was also 7 or 8 small gallstones growing into their own size which they caught on time before it filled up my whole gallbladder
@@juliomarquez7923 how did they find the gallbladder? was it through an ultrasound or other testing if i may ask?
@@ItchyGonadz-THC they did an ultrasound
Your clear explanation on how the gallbladder, liver and thyroid work together helped me a lot. My gallbladder is clogged. Do you have any videos on how to clean up the gallbladder? Will cleaning up the liver also clean up the gallbladder? Thank you.
I've heard about tudca, bile salts (ox biles). The other Dr. BErg (erik) talkes about that.
Take bile salts and add bitter foods to the diet
Watch Kick it Naturally
Excellent presentation! Straight to the point. Very interesting on how the vast information from anatomy and physiology is trimmed dow to the most relevant parts and combined together to give a clear and accurate picture on the discussed subject. I would be really interested to understand on how to cope with a toxic gallbladder and what possible routes for treatment I might be able to follow. Thank you for all your pertinent, flawless and non biased videos!
when i had gallbladder issues, i felt pain just below my right ribcage!!! eventually had to get it taken out
was it better after?
@@HannahRosetheVeganNomad yeah.. before i had it out was aweful.. lost 40 pounds as all i ate was salad! now im eating anything again
Philosophy won't bring in the 💰 but gallbladder removals sure will!
Mom had severe gall bladder issues post WWII. At72, even though I've always eaten healthy, I've had these symptoms all my life, as mom had them, I thought it was just normal for our family. She took some Italian meds daily. Never knew what it was. I was hoping I'd see this video soon. So I'd have correct info as I'm 72 now and just figured out that both parents were relatively healthy until they both had either stroke or heart attack at 80 yrs old. Stress has been a major stressor for me for years and I've always noticed changes in my bowels during those times.
Thank you as I knew I've needed this information. Now that asthma from dad is no longer an issue. I knew mom's gall bladder was going to visit me. Llol
Finally someone took the time to deeply explain this. Thanks a lot.
Thankful for RUclips, Dr Berg and Dr Ekberg ...we are so lucky! and you two are so talented and so human
I never knew what the purpose of the gall bladder was, thank you. Now I need to learn how to protect and rejuvenate it. I hope you cover that soon. : D
Don't eat processed foods
This is true education that is important to help us stay healthy and aware
Thank you for all the videos you make!! Can you please make a video on "life after gallbladder removal"? I have watch almost all your videos and love love you
I read back to Eden. Very old medicine book. My gallbladder years ago swelled up. Really hurt. Per the book take 1tsp lemon juice and 1 tsp olive oil. Lay on your left side in a very quiet room for 30 minutes. It actually all stopped. Felt great. I was 40. At 55 did it again same result. It’s great
I'll look into it, thanks.
@@ThisIsNotMyHome
Did it work?
I did that too for the last 15 years. Now I have a huge gallstone, and a 5.8mm wall thickening which is severe. Having surgery next week. Probably should have done it many years ago
I dilute epsom salt and use the liquid grapefruit juice and olive oil. Don't eat till noon. It will work
Didn't they check you for gallstones
Talk about clarity and easy listening! The only thing lacking is closed captions for those who have hearing loss.
You can turn on captions within your own device under youtube settings.
Thank you blenderbender. I just added them. Sometimes RUclips generates them but sometimes I have to go through a rather tedious process to generate them myself which is what I did this morning. Enjoy.😄
Just press the cc
@@horsenaturalbaby thanks, but if you saw Dr. Sten's reply, captions were not available initially.
Dr Ekberg, thanks for another great video. Can you please make one on how to help or fix the galbladder work optimally.
My husband had repeated acute cholecystitis due to gallstones and we had hoped to control the incidence of this through diet. However, he was ultimately forced to have a cholecystectomy following an acute episode of pancreatitis when a stone became lodged in the pancreatic duct. Thanks for your very informative videos.
So clear and succinct. Of my recent attack, instead of sending me to review with a Gastroenterologists, ED referred me to a general surgeon. This clip is perfectly timed Dr Ekberg. Drowning out e noise and helping me to listen to my body and making quality & sound decision to look after my health beyond my current predicament. This is life saving knowledge - THANK YOU🙏
Gallbladder attacks were substantially more painful than labor (which I’ve done 4 times). I’ve never been so happy to get an organ removed in my life. And I would do it again in a heartbeat.
: Precisely, this what im having now. Going get it removed soon, as theres no others options for me, although i scroll all the mix pros & cons personal experience experiences😢
I was so grateful to get it out! Had emergency surgery 4 days ago. Felt great immediately after!! Didn’t have time, or energy to consider the long term effects, just very grateful to feel well again.
@@dessyyessy599 Yes, I as well have a consult to get mine removed as well. I ended up at the hospital last year with pain in my back around my kidney area and the doctor just gave me some T3's and muscle relaxant thinking it was a pulled muscle. My family doctor got me a scan once I complained about this pain moving to my flank. Two large gallstones.... great!
@@Wallflower28 : Hope all our sufferings & pain will go away soon, once the surgery is done yah... 🙏😢
Saaaaame
My whole family has had theirs removed. I'm the last one standing.
Thank you Karen Allred. Good for you. Take good care of it.😄
@@drekberg
How?
Me too
Keep standing ! Tall !
Karen Allred,
Do you wish to diclose the reason that "everyone" in your family have removed their gallbladder's? It sounds very strange to me!
Do you have a video on what to do and how to help your gallbladder if it is irritated?
Dandelion tea reduces pain. Lemon water first thing in morning too.
Yes sir, I strongly believe that our bodies was intelligently designed, and the gallbladder was assigned its proper functions .
Finally a Dr. That explains things not just a diagnosis and a pill...thank you for explanations and treating us like adults able to understand.
Thank you Dr Ekberg. Your channel is now part of my self education. I haven't trusted the medical industrial complex for a long time - and my distrust keeps growing! I believe too many people take the easy route and believe without question.
I really appreciate how much time and effort you have put into all your videos.
Amen
Truth. You'd be shocked by the misdiagnosis and medical error I know about personally. I can't even imagine this nationwide. I hear medical error is the 3rd biggest killer in the U.S. Scary stuff
@@mikimiki6202 Right? I read comments everywhere about these drs being wrong so often! And we know they treat symptoms not offer cures. Many of them are so simple - like a vitamin! I have digestive issues & I refuse to go to a dr, it'll end up costing a ton of $$ and I'll have to keep going back for another diagnosis
@somethingsburning774 A naturopath is expensive, too, but at least their methods aren't to shove pharmaceuticals down your throat. When I do go in for testing, I pray over it and ask for guidance 🙏 I've reversed my early stage osteoporosis by research and simplifying the process. Diverticulitis is something I and most of my family suffer with. My Mom passed away from complications of the surgery, and her trusted doctor, who wasn't even board certified, that blind trust cost her life. I reversed my diverticulitis, January makes 10 yrs. No magic pills, just lifestyle and walking. Good luck to you, research, and listen to your body and heal. We have everything we need in nature. God bless 🙏
@@mikimiki6202 I agree at least they're not there to make you worse so to speak. I'm sure there's good & bad ones in every bunch too. Yes prayer is key obedience helps too ;) SO SO happy for your reversals & really sad about your mom too. I'm thankful there's so much info available to us, I figure I saved myself months of searching, wads of cash & misdiagnosis & appointments to go back. I might actually do a 24 hour fast this week
That’s great insight! Just because you don’t understand its function does not mean it’s unnecessary after all, God cannot be wrong in His design.
Hi from South Africa Dr. Ekberg, thank you so much for this informative video. I have said for many years that God made us with everything vital to live a healthy life. You have so beautiful shown His wonderful creation. I had my tonsils removed because it was supposedly making me very sick but 6 weeks after the painful operation I got the same symptoms again. The Dr said well they are removed now so you don't have to worry about them 🤯😱 I was like but I need them 😥. You are a rare breed indeed. God bless
You are so clear and precise, not to mention honest and wise, Dr. Sten Ekberg!! THANKS!
What a great lecture on the gallbladder. A pleasure to listen to and easy to comprehend!
I m hypothyroid - i have always battled with overall energy issues - weight gains despite best efforts etc, sudden thyroid changes.
Sometime in last few years I realized - i have issues with my liver/gut based on how I feel. (Perhaps they existed from beforehand)
I somehow had instinct that fixing my liver/gut would help me with thyroid. But didn't know how.
I recently learned about tudca in doctor Eric Berg's video and was able to get hold of it very very recently.
I have started taking it since yesterday.
After watching your video I am so hopeful that I will be able to improve my thyroid function as well as fix my liver issues.
I am thankful to you, doctor Berg etc for showing us the mechanism and how body works.
Other medicine doctors would just give one med and ask to take for rest of the lives.
Whether this works or not, you are giving us power to understand our bodies better and hope that we didn't have before.. thank you so much!
Hi... may i know if you find Tudca helpful with your health condition after 1 year of taking it? Thx for your sharing 😊
@@4061earthabcdesong hello, I didn't feel so well with tudca and stopped it.
Thank you for this clear explanation. I especially appreciate how you reference hypothyroidism as an effect of liver/gallbladder function. I just learned this from another reference after being on Armour Thyroid for the past few years. None of the doctors I've seen ever mentioned that one could affect the other. So I'm still taking my thyroid meds but I'm working on clearing up my fatty liver which will hopefully help my gallbladder and head off gallbladder issues and also help with my hypothyroidism.
How is your fatty liver now?
Look into liver/gallblader flukes as well (fasciola hepatica). They live in the bile ducts and can play a major part in gallblader-related issues
@@neveralone7212 Thanks for this. I will look into it. 🙂
@@neveralone7212 hmm what if they are said to be clear on regular ultrasound? What else?
@@neveralone7212 Yes I just finished my 10 day prescription that my doctor gave me. It was somewhat hard and anyone taking Clostaramine needs to be prepared for Constipation by taking Apple Juice with it and getting the right amount of Magnesium Citrate or one could have a serious problem. I felt great while taking it but since going off it I have been feeling achy pain and nausea, even some cramping under the ribcage..
I found this video very helpful. Mainly because I'm older and this is more important to me. And also because the doctor did an excellent job of explaining it without confusing me with too many medical terms. Thanks a lot Doc.
I’ve watched a lot of your videos because I suffer with a number of different health issues. I wish all doctors knew what you know. I wish you the best of everything🙏🏼
Hi Sten, I really appreciate this video but I wanted to request a follow up: What lifestyle changes do you recommend if you've had your gallbladder removed? My wife and sister have both had their gallbladder removed with the doctor saying "well, it's pretty much a useless organ and you can live without it." But the more research we do, we find it performs a lot of functions in absorbing fat, fat-dissolved nutrients, and keeping the gut microbiome healthy. Can you recommend anything for patients that have had their gallbladders removed to ensure a happy and healthy life?
Dr berg has good info on that
Bile salt or tudca
In the same situation and would be very interested in that too Especially with regards to the bile synch that the gall bladder is supposed to be doing and how that affects e.g. intermittent fasting. I do 2MAD and it works fine for me, at the same time, I do have some of the negatives from a removed gall bladder Dr. Ekberg brings up, so very interested in finding out more and how to best mitigate the missing gall bladder in my life style going forward.
Please 🙏 add more
You can take bovine bile salts with meals that contain fats. Health stores should have this.
You explained the function and importance of the gall bladder very well. Thanks!
Dr. Ekberg I love seeing Your weight growth!!!
Since I started following You a couple of months ago You seem to gave gained 200k new subscribers!!!

Talk about substantial 😊
Thank you Jurga G. I know. We are super happy and grateful. Hopefully a million in May. 😄
I wish this video was longer. It was great but I really wanted him to keep going with what he was saying.
Dr Ekberg, what are your recommendations for somebody who has already had their gallbladder removed?
Yes, please, we need a video on recommendation for post gallbladder removal, please Dr Sten
Absolutely amazing video. Totally explains why I always feel like Gallbladder discomfort comes in at the same time my right side of my neck / thyroid is hot and uncomfortable as well. Also, explains why everyone I know who's had their Gallbladder removed has either crazy hot or freezing, mostly freezing.
Funny, I’m freezing all the time and I still have my gallbladder
@@detamoretjme too. How are you now?
I had my gallbladder out several years ago. My first symptom felt like I had a bus sitting on my chest, then shoulder pain. It was only picked up when my skin turned yellow. The consultant told me my gallbladder had been diseased for a long while. The gallstones they removed was all fragmented.
