- Vitamin C: the NHANES study showed that women with the highest level of vitamin C had a reduced risk of gallbladder disease.
- Vegetable protein and healthy oils like olive and safflower oils also seem protective.
In summary, to reduce your risk of gallstones, consider the following:
- Eat plenty of foods high in magnesium and vitamin C
- Go for healthy oils instead of animal fats
- Increase your intake of vegetable protein
- Exercise regularly and maintain a healthy weight
- If you lose weight, do so gradually
- If the caffeine doesn't bother you, drink regular coffee every day
- For insurance, take a multivitamin with minerals every day that has both vitamin C and magnesium.
