Gallbladder Polyps
Gallbladder polyps are quite common and a lot of patients ask us what can be done about them.
Polyps in the gallbladder usually do not cause any symptoms and are generally discovered incidentally during an upper abdominal ultrasound. If one or more polyps have been found in your gallbladder, you should have another ultrasound in three to six months to check if they’ve increased in size. Gallbladder polyps should not have increased in size significantly after that time. If a polyp has turned cancerous, it usually becomes substantially larger in that time frame.
Some doctors recommend the gallbladder be removed if a polyp is greater than 0.4 inches in size because of the risk it may turn cancerous. This is usually not necessary. It’s best to just keep monitoring it with ultrasounds and in the meantime, follow the healthy guidelines in our book, Save your Gallbladder Naturally and what to do if you have already lost it.
Since polyps can be a precancerous condition, it is important to increase your intake of vegetables and try to make your diet as healthy as possible. Selenium, NAC and Vitamin D can help to strengthen your immune system.

Although 95% of gallbladder polyps are benign, you say yours is growing and so we ask what size is the polyp and how fast is it growing?
You are advised to avoid all dairy food and gluten containing foods, processed foods and damaged/hydrogenated fats.
Supplementation is recommended, and Dr Cabot prescribes
Selenomune Designer Energy - 1 capsule daily to shrink the polyp and boost your immune system to inhibit the processes if your polyp is precancerous.
Vitamin D 5,000iu – 1 capsule daily. Please have a Vitamin D blood test to ensure this dose is sufficient.
Vitamin K2 (2,200mcg) – 1 capsule daily.
MSM + Vitamin C – ½ to 1 teaspoon twice daily in vegetable juice or water to reduce oxidation, inflammation and boost your immune system to inhibit the progress of pre-cancerous conditions.

To neglect your body's vitamin-D needs is like neglecting your car's faulty brakes until after an accident. Also statistically, the odds aren't in your favor.
Here's a medical oxymoron for your readers; with rare exceptions, there is no such thing a medical need for a liver transplant. That's because ANY liver can regenerate itself very quickly if properly supported and the person is still alive.
So be smart and save your gallbladder, save your liver and perhaps even save your life.
