How to avoid gallstones?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Healthy eating helps: You can’t prevent gallstones. Genetics and a high fat diet are the main causes. Reduce your risk by eating a healthy low fat diet. Avoid cholesterol. If you plan to lose weight, do it slowly. Quick weight loss may increase your risk for gallstones.
