Olive oil and lemon juice will not dissolve your gallstones. The olive oil may stimulate your gallbladder to spasm and release bile, but you may dispel the congealed olive oil instead of the gallstones. Hence, you experience pain! The majority of gallstones are created from cholesterol due to an imbalance in fatty acid metabolism. There are many herbal and homeopathic remedies to support the liver and gallbladder. To choose the right ones, please seek the advice of a trained health care practitioner. To avoid more stone deposition, change your diet to avoid high saturated fats and support your liver with a high degree of healthy dark green vegetables and liver supportive supplements. Support your body's elimination process through natural therapies and drinking 1/2 your body weight in ounces of pure, filtered water on a daily basis. You may choose to have some imaging to determine the severity of your gallstones. In some respect, this will influence the aggressiveness of your natural treatments. http://www.countrydoc.com Dr. Karen Benton, Naturopathic Physicians
