Is it useful to eat vegetable oil for gallbladder polyps?

Probably many people don’t know what gallbladder polyps are. In fact, gallbladder polyps are a common disease, which are mainly divided into two types: single and multiple. Most patients with gallbladder polyps need surgical treatment to recover. The specific recovery situation depends on the size of the polyps. Some people say that gallbladder polyps can only be cured by eating vegetable oil. Is this statement correct? Let me tell you what you should eat for gallbladder polyps.

For a single gallbladder polyp, if the polyp is small, only cholesterol crystals may be found after surgical removal. However, if multiple gallbladder polyps or large polyps are diagnosed, surgical removal of the gallbladder should generally be considered. Otherwise, if the polyp turns into gallbladder cancer, the prognosis is extremely poor and most patients die within a few months of onset. For patients with small polyps who do not want to undergo surgery, close follow-up and regular B-ultrasound examinations should be performed. If any changes occur, surgery should be performed as soon as possible. Now cholecystectomy can be performed laparoscopically, which has less trauma and faster recovery, and the patient can get out of bed and move around the next day after the operation. Gallbladder polyps are localized lesions in which the gallbladder mucosa grows into the gallbladder cavity. Patients generally do not have any symptoms. Some patients just feel discomfort in the right hypochondrium, which can be detected through B-ultrasound examination. In recent years, with the popularization of B-ultrasound examination, gallbladder polypoid lesions have been increasingly found in clinical practice. Cholesterol polyps do not require surgical treatment because they are not true polyps, but mulberry-shaped changes formed by the crystals of cholesterol in the bile gathering together, and their diameter is mostly less than 1 cm. Non-surgical and Chinese medicine treatments are available.

Usually you should pay attention to the following: Avoid drinking alcohol and alcoholic beverages; Eat regularly and have a good breakfast; Eat a low-cholesterol diet; Excessive cholesterol intake can increase the metabolism and clearance burden of the liver and gallbladder, and cause excess cholesterol to crystallize, accumulate and precipitate on the gallbladder wall, thereby forming polyps. Therefore, patients with gallbladder polyps should reduce their cholesterol intake, especially at night, and should avoid eating high-cholesterol foods such as eggs (especially egg yolks), fatty meat, seafood, scaleless fish, animal offal and other foods.

Other dietary precautions: 1. Eat more fresh fruits and vegetables, and low-fat, low-cholesterol foods such as: mushrooms, fungus, celery, bean sprouts, kelp, lotus root, fish, rabbit meat, chicken, fresh beans, etc.

2. It is advisable to eat more dry beans and their products.

3. It is advisable to use vegetable oil instead of animal oil.

4. Eat less irritating or spicy foods such as chili peppers and raw garlic. 5. It is advisable to use cooking methods such as boiling, steaming, braising, stir-frying, mixing, blanching and stewing. Do not use cooking methods such as frying, deep-frying, roasting and smoking.

6. Take 10 grams of hawthorn, 10 grams of chrysanthemum and 15 grams of cassia seed, decoct them into a soup and drink it instead of tea or drink green tea.

7. When drinking water, pinch a little hawthorn, sea buckthorn, ginkgo, and Gynostemma pentaphyllum and put it in a cup of water and drink it as tea.
