Diet For Gallstones

HEALTH / NUTRITION Since antiquity whey has been known as "healing water" by Greek physicians. Hippocrates and Galen both recommended whey to their patients. In the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, spas across Europe offered the whey cure to aristocrats and commoners alike. Modern scientific research has confirmed the curative capabilities attributed by our ancestors to this dairy product, but because it is highly perishable and must be consumed while very fresh, this cure fell out of favor in our modern urban age. Now, thanks to the availability of whey powder, this highly nutritious and effective healing agent is once more within the reach of everyone. Whey is the watery part of milk that is separated from the curd in the process of making cheese. It is rich in lactose, minerals, and vitamins. Beyond its nutritional value, whey has powerful detoxification properties and its therapeutic action is beneficial for the major organ centers of the body: heart, liver, kidneys, and intestines. It is especially effective in the treatment of liver ailments such as hepatitis as well as the treatment of skin problems, infections, edema, digestive disorders and gallstones, and the painful joint diseases of arthritis and rheumatism. Whey also has been shown to be a powerful treatment against obesity, high cholesterol, and high blood pressure. In addition to its ability to treat these specific illnesses, whey is a proven invigorating supplement that promotes overall good health and vitality. CHRISTOPHER VASEY, N.D, is a naturopath specializing in detoxification and rejuvenation. He is the author of The Water Prescription and the bestselling The Acid-Alkaline Diet for Optimum Health. He lives near Montreux, Switzerland.

The present study is an elucidation of different genetic markers like dermatoglyphics, ABO and Rh blood groups, ABH secretion status among the patients of gastrointestinal diseases (G.I.) and controls. Significant relationship between alcohol drinking and ulcerative colitis (UC) (p<0.05) and gallstone (GS) (p<0.01) diseases is established in the study. The number of smokers is relatively high in alcoholic pancreatitis (AP) and chronic alcoholic groups (CA). A considerable connection exists between non-vegetarian diet, alcoholic cirrhosis (AC), alcoholic pancreatitis and chronic alcoholic patients. The frequent incidence of blood group A in CA, AC and GS is noticed. In case of AP and UC high prevalence of blood group B is observed. The occurrence of non-secretors is significantly high in UC, GS and celiac disease as compared with that of controls. All the G.I. diseases show preponderance of loops followed by whorls. Arches and composites are almost equally distributed. It is also established that bilateral variation for dermatoglyphic characters is composite, i.e. determined by genes and influenced by environment depending upon the characters in question
