Hi there,

Gall bladder dysfunction is very related to methylation. Going forward, you really need to ensure that you are taking phosphatidylcholine.

You may not get enough relief from natural therapies, so discuss what your doctor recommends. Apple cider vinegar may help. Milk thistle or silybum marianum may help to treat liver and gallbladder issues. Acupuncture may help to relieve some of the pain from gallstones by reducing spasms, easing bile flow and restoring proper function.
