Today we’re going to cover why, in some cases, weight loss causes gallstones. The fat cell is composed of triglycerides and cholesterol. When a person starts losing weight, the cholesterol is going to come out. This is why some people have higher cholesterol when they first start keto.
But, bile salts help control cholesterol, especially excess cholesterol. A lack of bile can actually cause a gallstone. High insulin and a low-fat diet could also increase the risk for gallstones because they can contribute to a bile deficiency.
Action steps to help minimize the risk of gallstones:
• Go on a low-carb diet
• Take purified bile salts
