Diet for cholecystitis. Video

Diet with cholecystitis helps to remove bile from the gallbladder, as well as eliminate inflammation. It is necessary to use only easily digestible fats, for example, vegetable oil, which stimulates the secretion of bile. The diet should include foods that contain a large amount of magnesium salts: vegetables, fruits and buckwheat. Such products improve bile secretion, reduce pain and gallbladder spasms.

You need to eat more dairy and plant products. Milk helps prevent inflammation of the gastrointestinal tract, improves acid-base balance.

Fiber, which is found in plant foods, binds and removes cholesterol from the body, reduces the level of bile produced, and also normalizes stool

A therapeutic diet involves eating small meals 4-5 times a day. This improves the absorption of fats, and also promotes the release of bile with microorganisms that exacerbate the inflammatory process. If a person suffering from cholecystitis begins to eat 3 times a day, bile will stagnate in the gallbladder during long breaks between meals. This can lead to stones or infection. With frequent meals, the process of removing bile from the biliary tract occurs, which is necessary for the patient.

The total weight of the daily diet is 3,5 kg. This is slightly above normal due to the increase in fluid intake. However, you cannot overeat: this increases the level of cholesterol in the blood, which adversely affects the state of the gallbladder.

Dishes for a therapeutic diet should be predominantly steam or boiled

Baked and stewed foods are sometimes acceptable. Fried foods are completely excluded, since during the frying process, substances are formed that irritate the intestinal mucosa, stomach and liver. Dishes should not be hot or cold, as this can provoke stomach cramps. Therefore, you should eat warm food, medium temperature. Before going to bed, you can drink a glass of kefir.

You should refuse to eat foods that contain a large amount of cholesterol: egg yolk, brains, liver, caviar, etc. Eggs can be eaten no more than 2–3 times a week. In this case, it is preferable to eat only protein. Also, you should not get carried away with flour products and sweets. Bread is best eaten from bran. Coffee and black tea should be kept to a minimum.

It is advisable to eat several pears daily. Due to their chemical composition, they have a beneficial effect on the gallbladder. An excellent remedy that helps to avoid liver and gallbladder disorders, – chicory. You should regularly drink a decoction from the roots, flowers or seeds of this plant. Fresh chicory juice stimulates the secretion of bile.
