Everything you need to know about gallstones as it relates to diet and dietary composition.
👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻
In the obese during rapid weight loss from a very low-calorie diet, a relatively high fat intake could prevent gallstone formation, probably by maintaining an adequate gallbladder emptying, which could counterbalance lithogenic mechanisms
On the basis of a meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials, during weight loss, UDCA and/or higher dietary fat content appear to prevent the formation of gallstones.
🔔 10 woke takes from the world of Modern Medicine in 2024 🔔
1) climate change is more important than human nutrition 2) obesity is genetic disease that requires drugs 3) obesity is healthy & should be embraced 4) diets don’t work, carbs are good, meat is bad 5) masking kids prevents death & causes no harm 6) any living thing needs 9-10 COVID shots, especially pregnant women & young children 7) COVID shots prevent long COVID & myocarditis 8) DNA & chromosomes don’t mean much, they are fluid, so is biology 9) the AMA covering the ethics of banning meat & NEJM covering climate change is more important than the diabesity epidemic 9) take drugs for every chronic disease 10) luck charms is healthier than eggs
People wanted context - lie 1
1) “Meat is unhealthy”
Meanwhile it’s associated with improved mental health, improved bone and muscle health and newer studies like that from PURE show that excluding it is bad for mortality
Lie 2
“Obesity is racist and it’s actually healthy”
Doctors, in an effort to be “inclusive” are ignoring the health impacts of excess adiposity
How statisticians and researchers arrived at the conclusion that the BlueZones are a FRAUD. 🤔

“When these states transition to state-wide birth registration, the number of supercentenarians falls by 80% per year“
2/n
“The US data support the hypothesis that improved vital registration should reduce the number of supercentenarians, and be associated with changing patterns of old-age survival, by reducing age-coding error rates.”

Having looked at 10,000+ CGMs let me tell you what you will learn...
1/9
Lesson 1: Hidden carbs are everywhere
- you will find hidden sugar & carbs everywhere.
You didnt know you could find carbs/sugar but you will:
hotdogs, sausage, beef jerky, spices, condiments, sauces, soups, broths, basically everywhere you didnt look.
2/9
Lesson 2: consider avoiding seed oils, vegetables oils, especially from restaurants.
Patients who switch to olive oil and avocado oil & hoke cooking seem to have improvement not otherwise explainable on CGMs

I love the curious & creative thinkers, the patients who question everything, b/c answering these questions makes me a better educator & confirms my commitment to lifelong learning & shared decision-making
1/10
I don't “kick patients out” for presenting difficult questions… a cruel, yet common, practice among paternalistic/authoritarian doctors... I instead embrace the questions
I use them as an opportunity to dig deeper, understand more and understand better.
2/10
I’ve had many of the same questions that my patients have had, why should I or why would I patronize a patient for thinking logically and asking questions?
In any case, these question have led me to the primary literature...
