I am 39 years old female. I have a gallbladder stone for last 5 days. I have a question that" can extra virgin olive oil be eaten raw with lemon?

Question

Hi. Olive oil is considered to be a very healthy oil. But gall bladder tends to contract in presence of fatty food in our food pipe. So if there is stone, it may give you abit of colicky pain. So I will suggest not to take oil alone or with lemon. Also gall bladder stone needs to be taken care of with surgery. I suppose you are visiting a surgeon for that. If not, then kindly do that.

No, it will not help. Do these lifestyle change. Follow this 1. Don't take tea empty stomach. Eat something like a banana (if you are not diabetic) or any seasonal fruit or soaked almonds and a glass of water first thing in the morning (within 10 mins of waking up). No only biscuits or rusk will not do. 2. Don't overeat 3. Take your breakfast every day. Don't skip it. U should eat whatever your mother or grandparent eat in bfast. I mean to say whatever is your traditional food. If punjabi eat paratha, if belongs to south then take idli/ dosa etc. 4. Have light meals every 2 hours (in addition to your breakfast, lunch n dinner) e.g. Nariyal paani, chaach, a handful of dry fruits, a handful of peanuts, any fresh n seasonal fruit, a cup of curd/milk etc 5. Finish your dinner at least 2 hours before going to sleep. 6. Maintain active life style7. Avoid fast foods, spicy n fried foods, carbonated beverages 8. Take a lot of green vegetables n fruit. 9. Drink lot of water.10. Everyday preferably sleep on same time exercise in the form of yoga, cycling, swimming, gym etc.Till lock down do suryanamaskar every day. Be for more details, you can consult me.
