Now let's talk about liver and gallbladder cleansing. You may have heard about methods that promise to clean or detoxify these organs; they are very popular in videos or on social media, and they promote them with a lot of enthusiasm. You will likely see them here in the comments. However, it is very important to inform you that there is not enough scientific evidence to support the effectiveness of these methods. Some liver or gallbladder cleansing methods involve the consumption of special juices, herbs, or supplements that claim to help detoxify or cleanse stones. However, it is important to mention that our body has its own toxin elimination system, which is through the kidneys and liver. These organs work continuously to eliminate waste and toxins from our body. Scientific studies have shown that these liver and gallbladder cleansing methods are not necessarily effective for removing stones or accumulated toxins. Moreover, some of these methods can be very costly and potentially harmful to our health, as they do not establish a dosage and do not take into account other illnesses the patient may have. Instead of relying on cleansing methods that lack scientific backing, it is better to maintain a healthy, balanced diet and follow the advice of your doctor or healthcare professional who knows your case and you. After gallbladder surgery, it is important to follow a special diet to facilitate digestion and prevent discomfort during the initial stages.

During the first few weeks, remember to avoid greasy foods and opt for healthy, low-fat options. It is advisable to incorporate fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and protein into your daily diet. Additionally, it is recommended to eat smaller portions more frequently to improve digestion. All of this should be followed for the first two or three weeks, or until your surgeon advises otherwise. After that, you can gradually return to your previous eating habits, but always follow the recommendations of your surgeon or a nutritionist. They will provide you with personalized guidance according to your needs.
