Gallstones can go unnoticed until a painful attack occurs. A high-fat diet, taking birth control pills, obesity are all factors that can lead to the crystallization of stones in your gallbladder. Before it's too late, a gallbladder detox will clean it out and improve your digestion (but not only!). Find out how to clean your gallbladder naturally.
Why do a gallbladder detox?
The gallbladder is a small organ located under the liver that stores and secretes bile produced by the liver to dissolve fats. Thus, during digestion, the gallbladder will emit small contractions in order to expel the bile into the small intestine. Bile is composed of water, minerals, pigments (bilirubin) and cholesterol. Stones or lithiasis form when the bile is too concentrated in cholesterol and bilirubin. Severe pain may occur, sometimes requiring an operation to remove the gallbladder.
The liver and gallbladder detox allows you to take care of your organs and therefore your health and well-being naturally. Andreas Moritz is the creator of a gallbladder detox protocol that is well known in the field of natural health. He has written a book in which he details step by step the whole procedure, the benefits but also the risks and the conditions of execution: "The incredible cleaning of the liver and gallbladder". Its deep detox proposal allows the elimination of gallstones and excess cholesterol concentrated in the gallbladder. Indeed, these could obstruct the channels preventing the good passage of the bile towards the intestines.
When to do a gallbladder detox
From the moment you feel that you digest fats very badly, the detox of the gallbladder can be recommended to you. Moreover, according to the author of the method, all chronic diseases can find relief thanks to this detox of another kind. Indeed, we must not forget that in naturopathy, the liver is one of the most important emunctories with the kidneys. It is an outlet for various toxins.

This results in an accumulation of waste inside the body, thus favoring the appearance of chronic diseases.
