What can't you eat if you have gallbladder polyps? Remember these dietary taboos

Gallbladder polyps are caused by chronic inflammation, which can be benign or malignant. Some gallbladder polyps do not require treatment, and you just need to pay a little attention to your daily diet. The most important thing is to eat regularly, eat breakfast, and avoid eating greasy, high-cholesterol foods.

(1) Regular diet and a good breakfast are extremely important for patients with gallbladder polyps . If you skip breakfast, the bile secreted at night cannot be used and will remain in the gallbladder. If the bile stays in the gallbladder too long, it can stimulate the gallbladder to form gallbladder polyps or cause the original polyps to enlarge and increase in number. Therefore, it is best to eat foods containing vegetable oils for breakfast.

(2) Avoid alcohol . Alcohol is mainly broken down and detoxified by the liver in the body. Therefore, alcohol can directly damage liver function, cause hepatobiliary dysfunction, and disrupt the secretion and excretion of bile, thereby stimulating the gallbladder to form new polyps and/or causing the original polyps to grow and become larger, increasing the cancer risk of gallbladder polyps.

(3) Eat less high-fat, high-cholesterol foods , such as egg yolks, fish roe, animal liver, brain, intestines, etc. Increased cholesterol in bile makes it easier to form cholesterol stones. Vegetable oil can not only lower cholesterol, but also promote the conversion of cholesterol into bile acid to prevent the formation of gallstones, so it is advisable to use vegetable oil as the main food. It is best not to eat fried or pan-fried foods to avoid inducing biliary colic. When cooking, try to use light and low-fat food, steam or boil it at home, and avoid frying or deep-frying.

(iv) Reduce the intake of foods high in fiber and low in residue to reduce irritation to the gastrointestinal tract.

Warm reminder: Gallbladder polyps are a common lesion occurring in the gallbladder. When you find symptoms of gallbladder polyps, you should seek medical attention promptly. If you do not seek medical attention in time, it may turn into a malignant tumor. Therefore, everyone must pay attention to the disease of gallbladder polyps.
