Q: I am a 76-year-old man with diet-controlled diabetes and 18 months ago I was hospitalised and received treatment for gall stones but they didn't go away. I had a scan last week and they tell me I have a lot of gallstones but don't intend operating. My test for liver lipids is very high. I'm on milk thistle complex. Can you suggest an appropriate diet and medication I should be taking.
A: Gall stones are a hard mass composed of calcium salts, cholesterol becomes less soluble. There are however many contributing factors. Surgery is not the only option and I am sure you will find that a good low-fat healthy diet and the remedy Milk Thistle Complex, which helps to stimulate bile production, will be of great help. Eat a fresh salad every day with a dressing of olive oil and lemon juice to help slowly break down the stones."
