I have been doing Intermittent Fasting for 5 months for better health and weight loss. No gall bladder for 10 years. I have cut out pretty much all bad oils and eat smaller amounts and my digestion is great. Simple changes sometimes are all we need. 😊
They want to remove my gallbladder or the vein. I don't have gallstones. The vein isn't releasing bile I believe. The gallbladder is causing me issues right now. I can't eat any meat or fat or I get really sick
@@stevek3037 It's called sludge. I don't know how long you've been suffering with this, but it usually doesn't improve. I had a horrible doctor who didn't see a gallstone for the first couple of years so she kept insisting it was just reflux! I was miserable and threw up every few days no matter how careful I was about what I ate. Finally I got breast cancer and the the doc also found the gall stones on xray so she removed my gall bladder as well. She was livid with my family doctor. She said I had active infection, old scars, sludge and a gall stone blocking the duct. I fired my family doctor after that. She was such a simp! I used olive oil and lemon juice drink weekly at night for months before the surgery to try to keep the bile duct open. Look the treatment up. But eventually that no longer produced those little jade crystals in the commode as the scarring blocked everything. Usually recovery from gall bladder surgery is quick and not terribly painful. As long as it hasn't burst spewing poison into your abdominal cavity. But I couldn't eat as much at a meal afterwards. Your liver still produces bile but doesn't have a storage tank! Good luck with your treatment! ☺
My gangrenous gallbladder was removed nearly 30 years ago in my late 30s. I have no idea why it was in the condition it was but further, I was not given any guidance on how to eat after the surgery. I just kept eating the same way ever since and haven't had any related health issues. I had no choice in the removal as it seemed I was having a heart attack until the doctors discovered the gallbladder issue and out it came. I haven't missed it and life is good.
I had the same issue even longer ago and have found I do best eliminating all overt fat, especially in animal products. And despite what this huckster is selling, we have no need for oils of any kind, oil is not food, its just concentrated fat that has all the nutrients and fiber removed! The only essential fatty acids are the omegas, which ideally are eaten as a component of a whole food, not an oil or profitable $upplement. Our crappy, meat heavy, fat-laden diets are the cause of gall stones... little cholesterol nuggets that form from excesses of it.
@CharGC123 We do need the bile and enzymes but I agree this guy is selling his product. That's where he lost me. So I'll just ask a real doctor instead
All I was told was to not eat TO MUCH greasy food !! I WOULD RUN TO THE BATHROOM AFTER I ATE WITH DIARRHEA HALF THE TIME ! I CAN'T EAT THINGS LIKE PIZZA AND THEY TOOK MY GALLBLADDER OUT 20 YEARS AGO
I wasn’t told a single thing about treatment or pathology of gall bladder, except that it has to come out and I don’t need it anyway. And I wasn’t told one single thing for taking care of my health post op
Oh this was me too but it comes later, the issues associated without having a Gallbladder. As long as you eat well & take probiotics..you may be able to be ok.😉
I had mine taken out 30 years ago No more pain since the surgery! Yes, if I HAD TO DO IT AGAIN I DEFINATELY WOULD! ( For whatever the reason, my Mom had to have the surgery twice)
I have no gall bladder , only one kidney , no spleen and a large piece of pancreas taken out , had a 7 hour operation for cancer and I'm fine , not suffering and I'm 72 years and live in Australia 😊😊
I’ve been slowly suffering without gallbladder for years! Doctors don’t fix it won’t even acknowledge that’s what is wrong. My stomach health is declined and gained 100 lbs over the years and can’t drop the weight. Hormones are out of control and im miserable. Thanks for this video it’s a start.
Hey… I’ve been there & now lost the weight. Without gallbladder. Finally. My tip: Do your bloodwork to find out what is missing from your system. Then talk to a dietitian about how to add that to your diet in a way that works without stressing your digestive system. That, plus non-strenuous exercise & intermittent fasting, helped me. Be patient though because the process took a long time.
@@mollyjonesreactsHi, thanks for sharing. Just wondering about the doing blood work part. Where I am, (Canada), it's hard to get doctors to give you blood tests. So can I know what you asked for and what should be tested for? Thanks!
I had mine taken out over 30 years ago . No more pain since the surgery! Yes, if I HAD TO DO IT AGAIN i DEFINATELY WOULD! I've felt really good since I had it done!( For whatever the reason, my Mom had to have the surgery twice) I guess it's a bit different for everone that has had it done. Too bad it didn't work out for you....
I had my gallbladder out 41 years ago and had not 1 stone but a handful of crystals with sharp edges.Wish I had been told to eat oxbile tablets,digestive enzymes, probiotics and coconut oil to help eliminate fats which now are responsible for a fatty liver disease which has now decreased my longevity. Angry yes.Karen
I had my gallbladder removed 55 years ago due to stones. I was the youngest person at the time for this operation. I have a 9” scar. My stones were a result of a diet of everything fried in corn oil. My father demanded fried hamburgers, steak, pork chops, fish, eggs, chicken. I have suffered my entire life waking up still full from my previous night dinner and also IBSD from bile dumping from my liver.
@@cherie2174My neighbor had the laparoscopic gall bladder surgery outpatient. She came home and was in so much pain, took some prescription 5:56 pain medication and went back to sleep. Her mom found her dead in the morning from hemorrhage.
I have no gallbladder and after it was taken out I started on a roller coaster of one problem right after another and have slowly made some progress. The biggest was when my thyroid stopped functioning and levathoroxin didn't seem to help. In my reading and research I came across an article and did what it said, I stopped the meds on my own. I started eating two brazil nuts every day and three months later my thyroid was working well and the nodule they had found was shrinking, one year later it was gone. I look for a better way now on everything.
Thanks for this info. My story is similar. Gallbladder removed 29 years ago. Very active and sporty since, eating mainly a low-fat diet. A couple of years ago my thyroid became less active so I started on a corrective diet, eating brazil nuts for selenium and sea kelp for iodine, also a supplement for tyrosine. Seems to have helped. Also I have been more selective on fats: now extra virgin olive oil, fish, nuts, small amounts of butter or cheese.
Dr. About 18 mos ago I had emergency gall bladder surgery and since I've had diarrhea and episodes of, quick I have to find a bathroom. I'm taking half doses of the GI Support and it has calmed down significantly my digestive system. I'm going to increase the dose to see if there is more improvement. thank you, so far, for your advice and product. I'll keep you posted.
No Gall bladder for over 35 years. No regrets! I couldn't eat! I was down to 90 lbs and no one seemed to know what to do. I was going to die. I was told they couldn't do the surgery for a month. I said don't worry, I'll be dead by then. That was on a Friday, they did the surgery on Monday. Even with the staples and drainage tube, I felt so much better! Anything I ate, absolutely anything, caused so much pain....I didn't have stone, it just didn't work it was i was told. I didn't care. I wanted to live. I was skin over bones. I haven't been able to eat certain food since. That has been fine with me. I had no pain. I put on weight, which I needed. I was so grateful. After all this time and many years of research, doctors know more. I am grateful for that. I have been taking prebiotic, etc for a number of years now. So glad to know I'm on the right track. I use oils like grape seed, olive and coconut. I ditched the vegetable oils years ago. This information has been helpful in knowing I've been doing the right thing. I was 16 when I had my 1st attack and 31 before I finally gave in to have it removed. Then it was do or die. Thank you for sharing.
So happy to get rid of my gall bladder. I have zero issues now. But I don’t each much fat at one time. Never did, so no real changes for me. I get probiotics from foods. I don’t eat foods that upset my digestive system. I really have made no changes since I had it out 10 yrs ago.
Getting my gallbladder out was the best thing that ever happened to me. Once I got it removed, all the problems were gone! I got it out over 30 years ago... So, I highly recomend it to anyone having problems & your DR, suggest that you need to get it removed, to get your gallbladder removed, It was the best thing I ever have done!
I’m in the hospital right now waiting for surgery to remove the stone then schedule another surgery to take it out. I’m a lil nervous about taking it out, I hear a lot down the middle it seems.
@@Here-2-Learnhow’s it going ? I was in hospital for six days , was hell . Nurse said I’m not the norm . Year and half ago . Here because I’ve been eating terrible the last month and my liver was really hurting a couple days ago . Got some ox bile Sunday and has helped
I had mine out also…but misdiagnosed ALSO! They said I had a dark mass inside mine, and they always turn cancerous. They said that my problems with my digestion was also caused by my gallbladder. So they took it out, and when they cut it open, there was nothing in there! I’ve had more health problems and weight problems ever since. 🤬
They're not wrong about that, although yours was a misdiagnosis. My mom had gallbladder issues, and for sure it turned cancerous. She was diagnosed on Wednesday, died on Friday. The docs said had she had her gallbladder out years prior when she first started having problems, she would have lived a much longer life.
I was told mine was full of stones and a large one stuck causing excruciating pain to finally end up having emergency surgery. They never found the big one. I’m still struggling with my weight even though on Keto for a year and a half and taking ox bile and digestive enzymes.
My doctors had me try different things to see if my problem was something else. After about 18; months I was only worse and scan showed large stones. Once out all my symptoms cleared and I’ve been fine ever sense.
I am sorry that I had mine removed. Mine didn't even have stones. It kept staying inflamed from bile sludge according to my surgeon. I have not felt better since I had it taken out.
@@Nofiltervanilla so far so good I’m not in as much pain as I was before the surgery, every time I ate it hurt bad right where the rib cage meets I dealt with it for about 6 months on and off then it started every day I just went in n had it done. I’ve eaten pretty much everything including a pastrami burger haven’t had anything to bad so far . It’s only been 3 weeks. From what I can tell each person is different . I didn’t want it out but it was killing me literally , the duct was blocked. Doc said it was in bad shape . I do feel better but this video bothered me about long term kinda scary
Don’t eat food at once large amount portion… Eat in small portion keep gap in between Specially fatty food Sometime take SBO probiotic Okra vegetable vitamin D Once a week fish 1 egg everyday Less sugar
Good video. Still have the gallbladder, after several years of attacks .I'm 70 - Went vegetarian. NO full fat dairy. Your suggestions sensible and healthful.
@@stevek3037I went back to eating vegan and after 8 months lost 60lbs and went back to my normal weight, eat basically no added fat and lots of water and exercise. I don’t have attacks as often now but I wonder if they will ever go away. I thought that by doing all these they would stop. According to the doctors there is no way back… I am scared of the possible consequences of getting it removed but also that a stone would get stock at some point…
The biggest issue I've had since having my gallbladder removed (walnut-sized stone tried to wedge itself into the duct) is the liver dumping all the bile straight into my intestines, causing massive diarrhea whenever I've strayed from the keto diet. In time, it resolves itself, but it's miserable during the adaptation phase.
Hi there, thanks for sharing that. How long did it take before if sorted itself out? I had my GB taken out about 4 months ago and still have serious issues with diarrhoea. Thanks
It’s getting much better now. I’ve learnt that eating more vegetables (fiber) and less fat things are much better. I was also prescribed Cholestagin tablets that I take before eating and they work. Gravy and sauces are just a no no too.
I had ny gallbladder removed a year ago .I now experience discomfort on chest .stomach and right-side I regret taking my gallbladder .Im always tired as if there's something wrong with my muscles.sometimes I get confussion feeling.i don't know what to do anymore .😢
Thanks for the information! I lost my gallbladder in 2000, and now as I am older at age 76, I am having some digestive problems, and just this morning, I came across another video which I watched, and a huge light bulb came on that I needed what they were talking about (Ox Bile and Digestive enzymes), so tomorrow I will go get some and hopefully this will take care of the problem.
Eight of my family members have had to get their gallbladders removed and I’m constantly in pain anytime I eat anything. Glad to hear that once my sugary comes around, there’s a decent aid.
Doc convinced me that removal was necessary to eliminate the pain I was having. No options were given. All that I have achieved now is pain, pain and more pain 😢😢
You were unlucky, I had my gallbladder removed 20 years ago. It was full of dice sized stones and gave me unbelievable pain. I stick to a low fat diet now, and I live a pain free life.
Same! I had my bypass then 4 months later my gallbladder developed sludge and had it removed. I now suffer from horrible ibs-d. Hoping ox bile supplement will help.
I been taking the GI Support for a month now and what a difference.Had gallbladder removed 30 years ago. I had a BIG issue with only having a bowel movement maybe once a week if i was lucky. having to take laxatives all the time. I now go once a day and will continue to take this supplement, its amazing!!! Thank you Dr Livingood
very important things to live by here. mine was taken out and my silly surgeon at postop visit, said, "go ahead eat whatever you want" NOT! thank god for a friend telling me about digestive aids.
I got my gallbladder out and I couldn’t keep food in me longer than an hour for almost two years it went in and the horrendous pain then out it came the other end almost the same way. I got soooo skinny. I got pregnant and when I got an ultrasound the doctor told me I had an digestive system like a dog. 🥺it eventually stopped during my pregnancy. The doctor who took my gallbladder out never told me anything all he kept saying was my body will adjust. This was back in 1990’s. Thank you for your information!! ❤
I got a gall bladder pain over 5 years ago. After an ultrasound, the doctor recommended removal surgery. I instead did a gall bladder flush. For two more years I ate anything I wanted. I got pain again for 2 hours 2 years after the diagnosis. I did another gallbladder flush. No problem for 2 more years and I avoided trigger foods like red meat, eggs, pizza, and greasy fried foods. Then in late Feb through May 2023 I had pain a couple of times. I did the gall bladder flush again. And I started eating a gallstone diet of largely vegetables, brown rice, potatoes, baked beans, artichokes, wholewheat brown bread, fish, fruits, nuts, beer, extra hydration, bile salts, magnesium malate, low-fat yogurt, and sour foods. I use an air fryer to lessen cooking oils, fats. I eat plant-based veggie burgers and french fries. No problems now for near 9 months.
Flush arent true, gallstones dont simply get out of your bile duct, reason why youre having an attack because stones are clogging up inside and cant get out because their already too hard and too big to get through bile duct, have an ultrasound and you will see your stones are still there.
Sorry but flushing isnt true, if you have an ultrasound this time im pretty sure your stones have even increased its size compared to the time of your very first gallbladder attack.
I actually did probiotics every day for like 7 months and when this happened I would just burp these weird warm and toxic feeling activia burps. Not saying they were harming me, I was already there. Can’t say whether it was helpful at that time though
Hi, thanks for the video! I lost my gallbladder years ago and have had gut issues and constant diarrhea since. I just ordered two bottles of the GI supplements and also am trying the carnivore diet for the second time. ❤
ive ate health a my life had two gallbladder attacks diagnosed with stone getting stuck in tube also fistula and had jaundice they took out the stone and saved my gallbladder thank goodness they did
I did a gallbladder cleanse which did work for 10yrs, I did eventually have to have it out... And I've never had any issues after having it out I can eat butter all day long and any other dairy without any problem... My daughter on the other hand still cannotolerate fried foods ever after hers was taken out...I did send her the video hope it will help her
A little less than two years ago I had my diseased gall bladder removed and the doctor never said what to do after the surgery. The only thing that's better is less pain. I'm ordering the GI Support to see if that will help. I've tried other meds but nothing seems to help. I'll let y'all know.
Another tip I can recommend is get your stress under control so your body can reabsorb bile, I got IBS and tons of bile would come out and I know it's from stress and anxiety, my GI has been suggesting a bile binder, that I make too much and I found a digestive complex with some bile in it, a lower amount and it helped, the ones with higher amounts caused me issues. Also one last tip, take bile AFTER meals taking it before or during a meal is not a good idea because food needs to be acidified before you add bile into the mix, so wait a few mins after eating then take, has helped me. I had mine taken out at 13, wished I knew everything I knew now though, my extreme nausea and vomiting did stop after they took it though, but what the heck do you know at 13, you trust your doctor at that age. *Mini update to this post I’m 34 now for reference and lifestyle changes were never really explored, it was just, they ran some test, got around to gallbladder and was like doesn’t seem like it might be working well or at all, not really sure, so let’s take it.
I’m 37 and listened completely. To be fair though, I literally had 4 major organs in crisis due to the blocked biliary ducts and sludge etc. I would probably have given them my actual face if it would have stopped the whole dying thing.
I had my Gallbladder and Appendix removed at the same time as well as a Hiatal Hernia repair. I had several Galbladder attacks prior to my operation. They are very painful and upsetting to the whole system. It has been utter bliss since the removal. I eat mostly anything I want and have no digestive problems.
My own experience said that you need at least the first four. Ox bile replace function of gallbladder, enzyme supplements the pancreat, probiotics helps with intestine, fat helps maintain the whole system.I did the first four after my own research , it helps to eliminate my running bowel movement. I hope it will eventually fix my iron deficiency since now I have better absorption. Have not tried the GI reset. Still researching.
My GB was removed in my 20s. Doctor told me that stress and greasy foods is what caused my gallstones. I had emergency surgery bc a stone was trying to pass through my pancreas...scary. Doc told me it would of killed me. I take Dr. livingoods GI suport every day faithful. I no longer have nausea and stomach pains. Thank you for all that you do DLG. I finally got relieved after 30 something years ago of pain
Thanks Dr. Blake. What is the difference between Ox-Bile, Bile salts and Bile Acids? I've seen so many supplements with those names and don't know which one to pick?
Funny how they can take one of my organs and not only deny me this information, but straight tell me that I have no need to make any changes whatsoever.
I had a stomach pain and they needed to do some type of scan to see it which they said they couldn't quite see it because it seemed to be very large or perhaps inflamed but they weren't quite sure if taking it out would fix my pain. I was like 12 and the doctor gave me a choice..he said we can do surgery and take it out or you can just take some pills. He said if I opted to not take it out it could burst and cause alot of complications. The way he explained it was so weird and he made it seem so common and that I should just it get taken out because most likely it would happen eventually. I'm glad I had enough sense to say no and the problem resolved itself
I had mine out about 20ys ago i have slowly put on weight also suffer reflux realy bad and are now on tablets that i hate taking twice a day. I were never told anything about what to eat or not eat after the operation. Feeling pretty angry now that i listened to this story. 6:00
No gallbladder since 91. Ive never had an issue until carnivore pointed out I CANT eat much fat lol. Or spices. Probably contributed to over twenty year with Cronic morning issues. Loose. Run lol. But now I know. Much better!

My gull bladder was removed 23 years ago ! I was having attacks and in pain, this went on for at least a year! The final attack I had was horrible, I almost fainted, couldn't walk stand or see right it was awful. I have had no issues since!
Is it when you eat?? Or just over all I got mine taken out too but I sometimes get flareups, or if I eat something I’m not, supposed to I get pain where my gallbladder was.
I had my gallbladder and appendix removed. Some tips I can give. Don’t drink coffee until you have eaten a meal. Eat low carb, high fibre meals but don’t count carbs from veges. Take digestive enzymes, tudca and probiotics during or before a meal. You can take them every day togehthor or as you want. Also, do fasting. I try do omad or 18 hour fast. I always feel better after a 24 hour fast. Fasting heals the gut lining and Ive found I have very little to no pain in the gut after fasting. I also try do one or more 24 hour fast per week or on my days off. Make sure to drink some electrolytes otherwise you will have headaches.Since doing all these things, I have very little to no pain. Litterly feel normal again, no bloating no pain. Gl friend.
Meeee too! I hate I wasn't told or offered any info that'll heal it. F'n drs..! I feel for ya Chris; I'm miserable ev single day... :/ I wish you well God Bless You too!
I am to thin lost too much weight after GB removal I am now taking tudca but I have to get plain enzymes. I do quit eating after 5. I am on bile acid powder a little better .4 yrs of this pain every day. I was on enzymes but got off since they had oxblood.
I have my gallbladder taken out after I had a C-section. One thing I did find out is that a lot of women that have c-sections. It can cause your gallbladder to go bad I thought they left something inside of me I was in so much pain. That was back in 1992. Never had a problem since. I was in tears. When I had the attack gallbladder attack I couldn't get off the sofa.. I mean you can take the pain of a bad gallbladder go for it but not me.
thanks for the info... Lost mine but well... It exploded. You figure that it didn't went well for me at that moment but...I'm alive but... no gallbladder.
Doctor scared me into removal while pregnant saying if I dint do it right away I would be risking my baby's life. Turned out after they chopped it out it was healthy and no stones. Go figure. 12 years later still suffering
I will pass this info on to my mom and my x . I have my gallbladder. Why didn't doc say about the dumping after gallbladder is gone. The shitty right after most eat that has theirs gone. My mom can eat anything. My x complained and shits all the time with his out. I can't eat alot of different foods for other reasons. I use only canola oil and olive. My daughter buys coconut oil for skin and hair. She can eat anything etc.
Thank you Doc. I had a septic gallbladder. I was suffering every single day, doubled over in pain. Sick, vomiting bile. I had a gastric bypass 24 years ago. This happened 2 years ago. Coming out of this surgery, i felt great... then i had to go back in because they only had less than an hour to do my surgery and left stones in. I only was working with 30% of my heart. I was in ICU for 3 weeks. Just horrible. I cannot move my bowels any longer. Im lucky if i go every 3 weeks. I don't have a weight problem any longer, but i have a health issue now. I will take your advice. I bought your book. Big pharma is trying hard to kill us all.
i AM 76.5 YEARS OF AGE, and it has been 32 months since my gallbladder surgery. It was a FULL CHOLECYSTECTOMY, as I had over 50 gallstones. I am still suffering from Post-Cholecystectomy Syndrome, most continuous trips to the bathroom and a lot of gas issues. Today it is now 12:24 p. m., and I've had to go have a bowel movement 6 times already and will not be going to the gym to workout today. I want to overcome these issues and travel once more. What can I do to correct this problem?

If one eats a Whole Food Plant-Based diet, and all plant foods do come with some fat, and then we feel good. Both my husband and I have lost our gallbladder.
I am vegan or went back to being to see if my attacks would stop and while I regain my health in many aspects the attacks are still happening but not as often. The doctors still insist I should remove it but I am scared of the consequences… hearing you guys are doing good gives me some hope
My gallbladder was removed a little over a year ago and I have asked my Dr several times if I need to be taking some kind of supplement for that and she has told me no. I'm 66 years old and I know I'm not getting the best medical care I deserve.

I'm in desperate need of assistance! Around 17 years ago, my gallbladder was removed, but I wasn't provided any guidance on adjusting to life without it. I've endured chronic pain on my right side, spreading to my back, for over 15 years. Recently, I've started experiencing pain on both my left and right sides, especially worsening after meals. Additionally, I constantly struggle with excessive gas.

I'm at Saint Thomas Hospital now. I thought I was having a heart attack but they told me it was gallstones. I've got head gallstones in the past. I told the doctors not today. You're not taking my gallbladder out. I've been doing this simple recipe many times I just forgot to do it when covid was around to now. Anyways. I take half gallon of apple juice a day for 7 days. On the 7th day, drink all the apple juice before 6 pm. At 8 pm drink 6 oz of oil. I had olive oil it tastes good to me but you pick. And An hour later 9 pm drink 3 oz of lemon juice. That's how you get rid of gallstones. Like I said I've done it for years.
But that is so risky! 😅 I don’t want to take mine out but even after completely changing my diet, and going back to my normal weight the attacks are still happening though not as often… I wish there was a way to dissolve them 😔 because according to my doctors there is no way back and I just don’t believe that…
I had my gallbladder taken out about 6 months ago for 4 months I did not feel right after having it removed now I feel a lot better man it was causing me so much problems hurting everyday so bad and I tried them flushes I tried everything did not work for me
Doc. I’m weeks out from a Whipple surgery. I’ve always been healthy before this I’m age 57 . Had tumor in bile duct. Non cancerous. I take Creon before eating. Would GI Support Supplements be good for me.? Healing well and I’m doing great eating well & back-to work this week. Thanks Connie

Dr. Livingood, I also had a gastric bypass almost 5 years ago because of gastroparesis from my cancer treatment. Initially it greatly helped my GI issues but lately I get horrible bloating which looks like I’m 6 months pregnant, among other very uncomfortable issues. Will these products be good and safe for me to take with a gastric bypass? Thank you!!

It’s sad that these docs took our gallbladder out and didn’t tell us this stuff. Thank you doc I’m on my bill salts now
am suffering
@@kalkidangobezie4078 Mine was taken out 2015, 15 huge gallstones. Iam very healthy. After 8years have issues with constipation.
@@peach9704 they only took out the stone?
They took my gallbladder out for no reason 😢
It's criminal
I have been doing Intermittent Fasting for 5 months for better health and weight loss. No gall bladder for 10 years. I have cut out pretty much all bad oils and eat smaller amounts and my digestion is great. Simple changes sometimes are all we need. 😊
😊
They want to remove my gallbladder or the vein. I don't have gallstones. The vein isn't releasing bile I believe. The gallbladder is causing me issues right now. I can't eat any meat or fat or I get really sick
@@stevek3037 It's called sludge. I don't know how long you've been suffering with this, but it usually doesn't improve.
I had a horrible doctor who didn't see a gallstone for the first couple of years so she kept insisting it was just reflux! I was miserable and threw up every few days no matter how careful I was about what I ate. Finally I got breast cancer and the the doc also found the gall stones on xray so she removed my gall bladder as well. She was livid with my family doctor. She said I had active infection, old scars, sludge and a gall stone blocking the duct. I fired my family doctor after that. She was such a simp!
I used olive oil and lemon juice drink weekly at night for months before the surgery to try to keep the bile duct open. Look the treatment up. But eventually that no longer produced those little jade crystals in the commode as the scarring blocked everything. Usually recovery from gall bladder surgery is quick and not terribly painful. As long as it hasn't burst spewing poison into your abdominal cavity. But I couldn't eat as much at a meal afterwards. Your liver still produces bile but doesn't have a storage tank! Good luck with your treatment! ☺
What are you taking
My doctor told me no fasting without gallbladder because it can lead to gallstones much easier
My gangrenous gallbladder was removed nearly 30 years ago in my late 30s. I have no idea why it was in the condition it was but further, I was not given any guidance on how to eat after the surgery. I just kept eating the same way ever since and haven't had any related health issues. I had no choice in the removal as it seemed I was having a heart attack until the doctors discovered the gallbladder issue and out it came. I haven't missed it and life is good.
Those were the days they thought it was a superfluous organ that didn't do anything.
I had the same issue even longer ago and have found I do best eliminating all overt fat, especially in animal products. And despite what this huckster is selling, we have no need for oils of any kind, oil is not food, its just concentrated fat that has all the nutrients and fiber removed! The only essential fatty acids are the omegas, which ideally are eaten as a component of a whole food, not an oil or profitable $upplement. Our crappy, meat heavy, fat-laden diets are the cause of gall stones... little cholesterol nuggets that form from excesses of it.
@CharGC123 We do need the bile and enzymes but I agree this guy is selling his product. That's where he lost me. So I'll just ask a real doctor instead
Same here……2006. Came from nowhere, was infected, removed…..no issues since.
All I was told was to not eat TO MUCH greasy food !! I WOULD RUN TO THE BATHROOM AFTER I ATE WITH DIARRHEA HALF THE TIME ! I CAN'T EAT THINGS LIKE PIZZA AND THEY TOOK MY GALLBLADDER OUT 20 YEARS AGO
I wasn’t told a single thing about treatment or pathology of gall bladder, except that it has to come out and I don’t need it anyway. And I wasn’t told one single thing for taking care of my health post op
Same with me.
Same. 2years ago.
Same here
I heard the same thing. I told the doc if I didn't need it then God wouldn't have put it there. I opted not to have it removed.
Me either! Learned by watching & listening to other people’s stories.
My Gallbladder was removed a year ago and I have had no issues. I feel so much better!
Problems will happen later after a years that's what happened to me I started having issues after exactly 10 years
@@imeneghedir8468 My Mom lost her Gallbladder and she was good, never had any problems.
Oh this was me too but it comes later, the issues associated without having a Gallbladder. As long as you eat well & take probiotics..you may be able to be ok.😉
I had mine taken out 30 years ago
No more pain since the surgery! Yes, if I HAD TO DO IT AGAIN I DEFINATELY WOULD! ( For whatever the reason, my Mom had to have the surgery twice)
@@latachia_2981she may have had an inflamed or blocked duct. They say that can happen.

You need X39 stem cell patch to help boost your stem cell to help.

You've been through so much!
Sounds like a Whipple Surgery? Thats what I had 6 months ago. Blessings to you.
I’ve been slowly suffering without gallbladder for years! Doctors don’t fix it won’t even acknowledge that’s what is wrong. My stomach health is declined and gained 100 lbs over the years and can’t drop the weight. Hormones are out of control and im miserable. Thanks for this video it’s a start.
Hey… I’ve been there & now lost the weight. Without gallbladder. Finally. My tip: Do your bloodwork to find out what is missing from your system. Then talk to a dietitian about how to add that to your diet in a way that works without stressing your digestive system. That, plus non-strenuous exercise & intermittent fasting, helped me. Be patient though because the process took a long time.
@@mollyjonesreactsHi, thanks for sharing. Just wondering about the doing blood work part. Where I am, (Canada), it's hard to get doctors to give you blood tests. So can I know what you asked for and what should be tested for? Thanks!
@@iamsotiredofliving HbA1C, T3 & T4, iron level, vitamin levels for C, D3, K2, B12 is a good start.
@@mollyjonesreacts Great, thank you so much!! In your case, which ones were flagged because of your gallbladder being removed?

Sick everyday since.
Big regret listening to doctors.
Thanks for information.
I had mine taken out over 30 years ago .
No more pain since the surgery! Yes, if I HAD TO DO IT AGAIN i DEFINATELY WOULD! I've felt really good since I had it done!( For whatever the reason, my Mom had to have the surgery twice) I guess it's a bit different for everone that has had it done. Too bad it didn't work out for you....
Do robotic surgery or laparoscopic. Don’t do open surgery
I had my gallbladder out 41 years ago and had not 1 stone but a handful of crystals with sharp edges.Wish I had been told to eat oxbile tablets,digestive enzymes, probiotics and coconut oil to help eliminate fats which now are responsible for a fatty liver disease which has now decreased my longevity. Angry yes.Karen
I had my gallbladder removed 55 years ago due to stones. I was the youngest person at the time for this operation. I have a 9” scar. My stones were a result of a diet of everything fried in corn oil. My father demanded fried hamburgers, steak, pork chops, fish, eggs, chicken. I have suffered my entire life waking up still full from my previous night dinner and also IBSD from bile dumping from my liver.
@@cherie2174My neighbor had the laparoscopic gall bladder surgery outpatient. She came home and was in so much pain, took some prescription 5:56 pain medication and went back to sleep. Her mom found her dead in the morning from hemorrhage.
I have no gallbladder and after it was taken out I started on a roller coaster of one problem right after another and have slowly made some progress. The biggest was when my thyroid stopped functioning and levathoroxin didn't seem to help. In my reading and research I came across an article and did what it said, I stopped the meds on my own. I started eating two brazil nuts every day and three months later my thyroid was working well and the nodule they had found was shrinking, one year later it was gone. I look for a better way now on everything.
Thanks for this info. My story is similar. Gallbladder removed 29 years ago. Very active and sporty since, eating mainly a low-fat diet. A couple of years ago my thyroid became less active so I started on a corrective diet, eating brazil nuts for selenium and sea kelp for iodine, also a supplement for tyrosine. Seems to have helped. Also I have been more selective on fats: now extra virgin olive oil, fish, nuts, small amounts of butter or cheese.
Dr. About 18 mos ago I had emergency gall bladder surgery and since I've had diarrhea and episodes of, quick I have to find a bathroom. I'm taking half doses of the GI Support and it has calmed down significantly my digestive system. I'm going to increase the dose to see if there is more improvement. thank you, so far, for your advice and product. I'll keep you posted.
It's dumping syndrome.If you eat for example Mc Donald's you have to poop immediately. I have the same problem.
No Gall bladder for over 35 years. No regrets! I couldn't eat! I was down to 90 lbs and no one seemed to know what to do. I was going to die. I was told they couldn't do the surgery for a month. I said don't worry, I'll be dead by then. That was on a Friday, they did the surgery on Monday. Even with the staples and drainage tube, I felt so much better! Anything I ate, absolutely anything, caused so much pain....I didn't have stone, it just didn't work it was i was told. I didn't care. I wanted to live. I was skin over bones. I haven't been able to eat certain food since. That has been fine with me. I had no pain. I put on weight, which I needed. I was so grateful. After all this time and many years of research, doctors know more. I am grateful for that. I have been taking prebiotic, etc for a number of years now. So glad to know I'm on the right track. I use oils like grape seed, olive and coconut. I ditched the vegetable oils years ago. This information has been helpful in knowing I've been doing the right thing. I was 16 when I had my 1st attack and 31 before I finally gave in to have it removed. Then it was do or die.
Thank you for sharing.
Me too🤗

So happy to get rid of my gall bladder. I have zero issues now. But I don’t each much fat at one time. Never did, so no real changes for me. I get probiotics from foods. I don’t eat foods that upset my digestive system. I really have made no changes since I had it out 10 yrs ago.
Getting my gallbladder out was the best thing that ever happened to me. Once I got it removed, all the problems were gone! I got it out over 30 years ago... So, I highly recomend it to anyone having problems & your DR, suggest that you need to get it removed, to get your gallbladder removed, It was the best thing I ever have done!
I’m in the hospital right now waiting for surgery to remove the stone then schedule another surgery to take it out. I’m a lil nervous about taking it out, I hear a lot down the middle it seems.
@@Here-2-Learnhow’s it going ? I was in hospital for six days , was hell . Nurse said I’m not the norm . Year and half ago . Here because I’ve been eating terrible the last month and my liver was really hurting a couple days ago . Got some ox bile Sunday and has helped
what is probiotics food?
can you tell me which food is probiotics?
Same for me as well!
I had mine out also…but misdiagnosed ALSO! They said I had a dark mass inside mine, and they always turn cancerous. They said that my problems with my digestion was also caused by my gallbladder. So they took it out, and when they cut it open, there was nothing in there! I’ve had more health problems and weight problems ever since. 🤬
They're not wrong about that, although yours was a misdiagnosis. My mom had gallbladder issues, and for sure it turned cancerous. She was diagnosed on Wednesday, died on Friday. The docs said had she had her gallbladder out years prior when she first started having problems, she would have lived a much longer life.
Add coconut oil to your diet. It has great helped me since I had my gall bladder out.
I literally feel your pain - had my GB out in 1998 and have suffered ever since 😤😤😤🤬
I was told mine was full of stones and a large one stuck causing excruciating pain to finally end up having emergency surgery. They never found the big one. I’m still struggling with my weight even though on Keto for a year and a half and taking ox bile and digestive enzymes.
You might not have gallstones but gallbladder can also just stop working and die inside of your body which might be your case.
20 years no gallbladder and sick daily - worst thing I’ve ever done was listen to a surgeon who probably needed to make a boat payment.
Exactly!!! F'n Bullsheitttt
💯 facts I regret taking it out 🤦🏻♀️
My doctors had me try different things to see if my problem was something else. After about 18; months I was only worse and scan showed large stones. Once out all my symptoms cleared and I’ve been fine ever sense.
@@dianaalvarado8956really? Was the pain with it bad?
I am sorry that I had mine removed. Mine didn't even have stones. It kept staying inflamed from bile sludge according to my surgeon. I have not felt better since I had it taken out.
Had my gallbladder out 2 days ago. This will help me. Thanks Doc.
In the hospital getting mine out right now
@@Here-2-Learn hey! How are you now? Are u ok?
@@Nofiltervanilla so far so good I’m not in as much pain as I was before the surgery, every time I ate it hurt bad right where the rib cage meets I dealt with it for about 6 months on and off then it started every day I just went in n had it done. I’ve eaten pretty much everything including a pastrami burger haven’t had anything to bad so far . It’s only been 3 weeks. From what I can tell each person is different . I didn’t want it out but it was killing me literally , the duct was blocked. Doc said it was in bad shape . I do feel better but this video bothered me about long term kinda scary
Don’t eat food at once large amount portion…
Eat in small portion keep gap in between
Specially fatty food
Sometime take SBO probiotic
Okra vegetable
vitamin D
Once a week fish
1 egg everyday
Less sugar
Thank You! I've been wanting my gallbladder back for over 20 years!
Mine was removed about 45 years ago and I've never experienced any health issues, no digestive issues either.
Good video. Still have the gallbladder, after several years of attacks .I'm 70 - Went vegetarian. NO full fat dairy. Your suggestions sensible and healthful.
Yes they want to remove my gallbladder. They told me I can get it removed or go vegetarian
@@stevek3037I went back to eating vegan and after 8 months lost 60lbs and went back to my normal weight, eat basically no added fat and lots of water and exercise. I don’t have attacks as often now but I wonder if they will ever go away. I thought that by doing all these they would stop. According to the doctors there is no way back… I am scared of the possible consequences of getting it removed but also that a stone would get stock at some point…
The biggest issue I've had since having my gallbladder removed (walnut-sized stone tried to wedge itself into the duct) is the liver dumping all the bile straight into my intestines, causing massive diarrhea whenever I've strayed from the keto diet. In time, it resolves itself, but it's miserable during the adaptation phase.
Hi there, thanks for sharing that. How long did it take before if sorted itself out? I had my GB taken out about 4 months ago and still have serious issues with diarrhoea. Thanks
@@dermotmeehan994no matter what you eat?
It’s getting much better now. I’ve learnt that eating more vegetables (fiber) and less fat things are much better. I was also prescribed Cholestagin tablets that I take before eating and they work. Gravy and sauces are just a no no too.
Cholacol. 👍🏻
I had ny gallbladder removed a year ago .I now experience discomfort on chest .stomach and right-side I regret taking my gallbladder .Im always tired as if there's something wrong with my muscles.sometimes I get confussion feeling.i don't know what to do anymore .😢
Thanks for the information! I lost my gallbladder in 2000, and now as I am older at age 76, I am having some digestive problems, and just this morning, I came across another video which I watched, and a huge light bulb came on that I needed what they were talking about (Ox Bile and Digestive enzymes), so tomorrow I will go get some and hopefully this will take care of the problem.
After extensive tests, it is determined that I was born without a gall bladder. Thank you for this information!
Eight of my family members have had to get their gallbladders removed and I’m constantly in pain anytime I eat anything. Glad to hear that once my sugary comes around, there’s a decent aid.
Doc convinced me that removal was necessary to eliminate the pain I was having. No options were given. All that I have achieved now is pain, pain and more pain 😢😢
I’m in the same boat as you 😢
Me too. So frustrating to say the least,
You create your own options
Really? What pain n why?
You were unlucky, I had my gallbladder removed 20 years ago. It was full of dice sized stones and gave me unbelievable pain. I stick to a low fat diet now, and I live a pain free life.
my gall bladder was removed after a gastric bypass surgery with no explanation. thank you for this information
Same! I had my bypass then 4 months later my gallbladder developed sludge and had it removed. I now suffer from horrible ibs-d. Hoping ox bile supplement will help.
I been taking the GI Support for a month now and what a difference.Had gallbladder removed 30 years ago. I had a BIG issue with only having a bowel movement maybe once a week if i was lucky. having to take laxatives all the time. I now go once a day and will continue to take this supplement, its amazing!!! Thank you Dr Livingood
very important things to live by here. mine was taken out and my silly surgeon at postop visit, said, "go ahead eat whatever you want" NOT! thank god for a friend telling me about digestive aids.
Thank you, highly informative. I already use probiotics, digestive enzymes and use avocado, walnut and olive oils and eat plenty of good oily fish.
I got my gallbladder out and I couldn’t keep food in me longer than an hour for almost two years it went in and the horrendous pain then out it came the other end almost the same way. I got soooo skinny. I got pregnant and when I got an ultrasound the doctor told me I had an digestive system like a dog. 🥺it eventually stopped during my pregnancy. The doctor who took my gallbladder out never told me anything all he kept saying was my body will adjust. This was back in 1990’s. Thank you for your information!! ❤
I got a gall bladder pain over 5 years ago. After an ultrasound, the doctor recommended removal surgery. I instead did a gall bladder flush. For two more years I ate anything I wanted. I got pain again for 2 hours 2 years after the diagnosis. I did another gallbladder flush. No problem for 2 more years and I avoided trigger foods like red meat, eggs, pizza, and greasy fried foods. Then in late Feb through May 2023 I had pain a couple of times. I did the gall bladder flush again. And I started eating a gallstone diet of largely vegetables, brown rice, potatoes, baked beans, artichokes, wholewheat brown bread, fish, fruits, nuts, beer, extra hydration, bile salts, magnesium malate, low-fat yogurt, and sour foods. I use an air fryer to lessen cooking oils, fats. I eat plant-based veggie burgers and french fries. No problems now for near 9 months.
meat and eggs will not hurt your digestion or gall bladder
@@greenfield1944 Red meat can. But egg whites are okay for most people. But not all.
Flush arent true, gallstones dont simply get out of your bile duct, reason why youre having an attack because stones are clogging up inside and cant get out because their already too hard and too big to get through bile duct, have an ultrasound and you will see your stones are still there.
@@allnighterist Nearly everyone who has tried it correctly swears by it.
Sorry but flushing isnt true, if you have an ultrasound this time im pretty sure your stones have even increased its size compared to the time of your very first gallbladder attack.
Probiotics have helped me the most since loosing my gallbladder. My go-to is yogurt which is also very easy to make at home overnight.
I actually did probiotics every day for like 7 months and when this happened I would just burp these weird warm and toxic feeling activia burps. Not saying they were harming me, I was already there. Can’t say whether it was helpful at that time though
Activia is no good it's all sugar
I have watched a ton of "own your health" videos, these are really good! No, bs, a load of info in a short clip. Thanks so much!
Hi, thanks for the video! I lost my gallbladder years ago and have had gut issues and constant diarrhea since. I just ordered two bottles of the GI supplements and also am trying the carnivore diet for the second time. ❤
how's it working out?
ive ate health a my life had two gallbladder attacks diagnosed with stone getting stuck in tube also fistula and had jaundice they took out the stone and saved my gallbladder thank goodness they did
I did a gallbladder cleanse which did work for 10yrs, I did eventually have to have it out... And I've never had any issues after having it out I can eat butter all day long and any other dairy without any problem... My daughter on the other hand still cannotolerate fried foods ever after hers was taken out...I did send her the video hope it will help her
A little less than two years ago I had my diseased gall bladder removed and the doctor never said what to do after the surgery. The only thing that's better is less pain. I'm ordering the GI Support to see if that will help. I've tried other meds but nothing seems to help. I'll let y'all know.
Thank God you made this vidio, I am all messed up, them 2 doctors I went to see didn't have a clue. Thank you so much.
Another tip I can recommend is get your stress under control so your body can reabsorb bile, I got IBS and tons of bile would come out and I know it's from stress and anxiety, my GI has been suggesting a bile binder, that I make too much and I found a digestive complex with some bile in it, a lower amount and it helped, the ones with higher amounts caused me issues. Also one last tip, take bile AFTER meals taking it before or during a meal is not a good idea because food needs to be acidified before you add bile into the mix, so wait a few mins after eating then take, has helped me. I had mine taken out at 13, wished I knew everything I knew now though, my extreme nausea and vomiting did stop after they took it though, but what the heck do you know at 13, you trust your doctor at that age.
*Mini update to this post I’m 34 now for reference and lifestyle changes were never really explored, it was just, they ran some test, got around to gallbladder and was like doesn’t seem like it might be working well or at all, not really sure, so let’s take it.
I have a stone in my duct right now they’re going to remove the stone then later they want to remove the gallbladder should I do it?
Taurine, Tudca, Cholacol & ox bile help sluggish gall bladders. 🤷🏼♀️
I’m 37 and listened completely. To be fair though, I literally had 4 major organs in crisis due to the blocked biliary ducts and sludge etc. I would probably have given them my actual face if it would have stopped the whole dying thing.
I had it taken out I do feel a lot better haven’t had any problems so far compared to the pain and sickness I had before
@@RachelLara that’s a different situation and I understand that completely.
I had my Gallbladder and Appendix removed at the same time as well as a Hiatal Hernia repair. I had several Galbladder attacks prior to my operation. They are very painful and upsetting to the whole system. It has been utter bliss since the removal. I eat mostly anything I want and have no digestive problems.
Grateful, thank you!
Thank you for that information. I always had a problem after having my gallbladder removed many years ago. Do we choose one of your five suggestions?
My own experience said that you need at least the first four.
Ox bile replace function of gallbladder, enzyme supplements the pancreat, probiotics helps with intestine, fat helps maintain the whole system.I did the first four after my own research , it helps to eliminate my running bowel movement. I hope it will eventually fix my iron deficiency since now I have better absorption.
Have not tried the GI reset. Still researching.
Both my son and I were never told any of this after having ours removed.

Thanks Dr. Blake. What is the difference between Ox-Bile, Bile salts and Bile Acids? I've seen so many supplements with those names and don't know which one to pick?
all are the same but you should try which is good for you
Same. I bought all three types. Bile salts Ox bile. Bile Acid factors.
Amazing, simple, easy to understand, thank you❤
Funny how they can take one of my organs and not only deny me this information, but straight tell me that I have no need to make any changes whatsoever.
I had a stomach pain and they needed to do some type of scan to see it which they said they couldn't quite see it because it seemed to be very large or perhaps inflamed but they weren't quite sure if taking it out would fix my pain. I was like 12 and the doctor gave me a choice..he said we can do surgery and take it out or you can just take some pills. He said if I opted to not take it out it could burst and cause alot of complications. The way he explained it was so weird and he made it seem so common and that I should just it get taken out because most likely it would happen eventually. I'm glad I had enough sense to say no and the problem resolved itself
Thank you SO Much Doctor for this!

My gallbladder was taken out at least 25 years ago. I wasn’t told why and wasn’t given postoperative instructions. 😢
I had mine out about 20ys ago i have slowly put on weight also suffer reflux realy bad and are now on tablets that i hate taking twice a day. I were never told anything about what to eat or not eat after the operation. Feeling pretty angry now that i listened to this story. 6:00
No on told me…. But it’s been quite a tummy trouble….thank you
Thank you Dr Livingood
Had my Gall bladder out a year ago, never had a problem. I'm vegetarian, perhaps that is a factor.
Ox bile 2-3 hours AFTER you eat. Stomach acid negates ox bile if taken with food.
Perfect, this is exactly what I needed! Thank you
No gallbladder since 91. Ive never had an issue until carnivore pointed out I CANT eat much fat lol. Or spices. Probably contributed to over twenty year with Cronic morning issues. Loose. Run lol. But now I know. Much better!

Is it when you eat?? Or just over all I got mine taken out too but I sometimes get flareups, or if I eat something I’m not, supposed to I get pain where my gallbladder was.
I had my gallbladder and appendix removed. Some tips I can give. Don’t drink coffee until you have eaten a meal. Eat low carb, high fibre meals but don’t count carbs from veges. Take digestive enzymes, tudca and probiotics during or before a meal. You can take them every day togehthor or as you want. Also, do fasting. I try do omad or 18 hour fast. I always feel better after a 24 hour fast. Fasting heals the gut lining and Ive found I have very little to no pain in the gut after fasting. I also try do one or more 24 hour fast per week or on my days off. Make sure to drink some electrolytes otherwise you will have headaches.Since doing all these things, I have very little to no pain. Litterly feel normal again, no bloating no pain. Gl friend.
Meeee too! I hate I wasn't told or offered any info that'll heal it. F'n drs..! I feel for ya Chris; I'm miserable ev single day... :/ I wish you well God Bless You too!
I am to thin lost too much weight after GB removal I am now taking tudca but I have to get plain enzymes. I do quit eating after 5. I am on bile acid powder a little better .4 yrs of this pain every day. I was on enzymes but got off since they had oxblood.
Good information
Thank you
I have my gallbladder taken out after I had a C-section.
One thing I did find out is that a lot of women that have c-sections.
It can cause your gallbladder to go bad I thought they left something inside of me I was in so much pain.
That was back in 1992.
Never had a problem since.
I was in tears.
When I had the attack gallbladder attack I couldn't get off the sofa..
I mean you can take the pain of a bad gallbladder go for it but not me.
I was born without a gallbladder. Shocked my doctor. They filmed it for teaching.
Sure?
@@kalkidangobezie4078 lol, yea I was there

Ox bile helps me tremendously..I couldn't poop without it
When should I take the ox bile, before or after eating or with the meal?
You can take it with a meal! Around the same time will help! ☺️ -LGD Team
thanks for the info... Lost mine but well... It exploded. You figure that it didn't went well for me at that moment but...I'm alive but... no gallbladder.
Doctor scared me into removal while pregnant saying if I dint do it right away I would be risking my baby's life. Turned out after they chopped it out it was healthy and no stones. Go figure. 12 years later still suffering
I will pass this info on to my mom and my x . I have my gallbladder. Why didn't doc say about the dumping after gallbladder is gone. The shitty right after most eat that has theirs gone. My mom can eat anything. My x complained and shits all the time with his out. I can't eat alot of different foods for other reasons. I use only canola oil and olive. My daughter buys coconut oil for skin and hair. She can eat anything etc.
Thank you Doc.
I had a septic gallbladder. I was suffering every single day, doubled over in pain. Sick, vomiting bile.
I had a gastric bypass 24 years ago. This happened 2 years ago. Coming out of this surgery, i felt great... then i had to go back in because they only had less than an hour to do my surgery and left stones in.
I only was working with 30% of my heart. I was in ICU for 3 weeks. Just horrible. I cannot move my bowels any longer. Im lucky if i go every 3 weeks. I don't have a weight problem any longer, but i have a health issue now. I will take your advice. I bought your book. Big pharma is trying hard to kill us all.
i AM 76.5 YEARS OF AGE, and it has been 32 months since my gallbladder surgery. It was a FULL CHOLECYSTECTOMY, as I had over 50 gallstones. I am still suffering from Post-Cholecystectomy Syndrome, most continuous trips to the bathroom and a lot of gas issues. Today it is now 12:24 p. m., and I've had to go have a bowel movement 6 times already and will not be going to the gym to workout today. I want to overcome these issues and travel once more. What can I do to correct this problem?

My gallbladder has been removed since 2016
My life hasn’t been the same since! Sometimes food goes right through me and it gets bad. I have to go to the restroom multiple times… and the biggest thing is I get anxiety over the fact that I think I may not find a rest time and I might poop myself…
Do you eat anything or it also happens if you eat clean and healthy?
I been w/o a gallbladder for 18 yrs. No problems.

I was fine for 30yrs without it, the last few years have been a nightmare!
I have so many issues since my gall bladder removal 25 years ago and not one doctor has told me what you did in your video. I’m wondering how I go about with the gut reset and should I take the supplements you suggested while I’m doing the reset?

If one eats a Whole Food Plant-Based diet, and all plant foods do come with some fat, and then we feel good. Both my husband and I have lost our gallbladder.
I am vegan or went back to being to see if my attacks would stop and while I regain my health in many aspects the attacks are still happening but not as often. The doctors still insist I should remove it but I am scared of the consequences… hearing you guys are doing good gives me some hope
My gallbladder was removed a little over a year ago and I have asked my Dr several times if I need to be taking some kind of supplement for that and she has told me no. I'm 66 years old and I know I'm not getting the best medical care I deserve.
great health vid! thanks!
I don’t have a gallbladder, colon but have most of my small intestine. What would you recommend?
Hi Dr., so you have the Ox Bile AND Digestive Enzymes? Or pick just one?
Our supplement has both! drlivingood.pulse.ly/cmxibwkalc -LGD Team
My gallbladder was removed in 2003 due to gallstones and I have not had a moment's trouble since. I eat what I want when I want, no supplements.
You are very lucky!
Can you tell me if digestive enzymes help for absorb minerals?
Yes!!
Had ovarian cancer and had many of most of my organs removed or altered with heated chemo. What can I do?

I'm in desperate need of assistance! Around 17 years ago, my gallbladder was removed, but I wasn't provided any guidance on adjusting to life without it. I've endured chronic pain on my right side, spreading to my back, for over 15 years. Recently, I've started experiencing pain on both my left and right sides, especially worsening after meals. Additionally, I constantly struggle with excessive gas.

5:58 I read that using refined coconut oil can give you high cholesterol. Do the benefits outweigh the risks?
We recommend avoiding plant oils, such as coconut oil if you have high small LDL particles. If you do not have high small LDL particles, then they are okay to use. For oils, we recommend ideally all-natural with the best being unrefined and cold-pressed. - LGD Team
I had mine removed when I was 22yrs 10 wks after my first baby was born.

I'm at Saint Thomas Hospital now. I thought I was having a heart attack but they told me it was gallstones. I've got head gallstones in the past. I told the doctors not today. You're not taking my gallbladder out. I've been doing this simple recipe many times I just forgot to do it when covid was around to now. Anyways. I take half gallon of apple juice a day for 7 days. On the 7th day, drink all the apple juice before 6 pm. At 8 pm drink 6 oz of oil. I had olive oil it tastes good to me but you pick. And An hour later 9 pm drink 3 oz of lemon juice. That's how you get rid of gallstones. Like I said I've done it for years.
But that is so risky! 😅 I don’t want to take mine out but even after completely changing my diet, and going back to my normal weight the attacks are still happening though not as often… I wish there was a way to dissolve them 😔 because according to my doctors there is no way back and I just don’t believe that…
I had my gallbladder taken out about 6 months ago for 4 months I did not feel right after having it removed now I feel a lot better man it was causing me so much problems hurting everyday so bad and I tried them flushes I tried everything did not work for me
Doc. I’m weeks out from a Whipple surgery. I’ve always been healthy before this I’m age 57 . Had tumor in bile duct. Non cancerous. I take Creon before eating. Would GI Support Supplements be good for me.?
Healing well and I’m doing great eating well & back-to work this week. Thanks Connie

Dr. Livingood, I also had a gastric bypass almost 5 years ago because of gastroparesis from my cancer treatment. Initially it greatly helped my GI issues but lately I get horrible bloating which looks like I’m 6 months pregnant, among other very uncomfortable issues. Will these products be good and safe for me to take with a gastric bypass? Thank you!!
I would recommend checking out our Supplements with Digestive Enzymes, GI Support and Greens + Superfoods. Lastly, it may be beneficial to try eating much slower! bit.ly/4cm8jis Our best recommendation is to consult with your healthcare provider on this as every individual is incredibly unique! 🙂 -LGD Team
