Question 2

I'm really worried about having stones in my stomach. Can you tell me what could be causing this to happen? And if someone has this issue, are there specific foods they should eat or avoid? I'm also curious if it's okay to eat cucumbers or tomatoes. I'd really appreciate your advice on this.

Accepted Answer

Stomach stones, also known as gastroliths, typically form due to accumulation of calcium salts, bile, and other substances, often caused by factors like excessive gastric acid, bile reflux, or dietary habits; to manage stomach stones, it's recommended to eat foods that are easy to digest, such as bananas, rice, applesauce, and lean proteins, while avoiding spicy, fatty, or acidic foods like citrus fruits, tomatoes, and cucumbers, which can irritate the stomach and worsen symptoms.

Question 3

My mom is 56 years old, 5'2¬ù tall, and weighs 55 kg. She has multiple gallstones ranging from 4mm to 10-11 mm. Can this be treated naturally with homeopathy or ayurvedic medicine, or is surgery the only option? What would you recommend for her condition?

Accepted Answer

For gallstones, especially those larger than 10mm, surgery (laparoscopic cholecystectomy) is generally recommended for effective removal. While homeopathic and ayurvedic approaches may offer symptom relief and support overall digestive health, they are not proven to dissolve or remove gallstones.
