Can rapid weight loss cause gall stones?

Now #paleo diet has gained momentum like never before. In paleo diet, fat is an important component and it may be noted that carbohydrate is either not present in the diet or is extremely negligent. Since the basis on which the fat storage works is fundamentally absent or it is put to rest by consuming high fat diet, the rapid weight loss is achieved. How is then rapid weight loss and gall stone formation related? Here are the facts. http://www.springfieldwellnesscentre.com/can-rapid-weight-loss-cause-gall-stones/

Cancer in Gallbladder

Gallbladder cancer is a very rare condition that is not diagnosed usually. Symptoms do occur which are not watched out. Sometimes the symptoms appear early but sometimes it does not.

Can You Undertake Paleo Diet After Gallbladder Removal?

Gallbladder, a small pouch present below the liver stores bile in a concentrated form to release it when there is a large amount of fatty food in the stomach. So gallbladder literally has more work to do when there is high amount of fatty food in the diet. Paleo diet typically is high in dietary fat and proteins, and is very low or near nil in carbohydrates depending on the level of paleo diet you are in. Since bile secretion is necessary for fat digestion, people who have undergone gallbladder removal surgery are often left confused if they can undergo their diet.

Abscess in Appendix

One of the complications of a burst  #appendix  is the formation of something called  #abscess  around the area where the burst has happened. An abscess is a collection of pus around the area. This collection of pus is because the body's immune system has been fighting the infection. The treatment for abscess is usually administering antibiotics. But before administering the antibiotics, when appendectomy is done, the pus in the abscess area is drained mandatory as part of the cleaning of the abdomen.

An Easy Method To Calculate BMI

BMI calculation may be difficult for the mathematically weak. But certainly there is an easier option, though it may not be precisely a scientific approach. Just divide your height in cm by two. So in other words the waist size should not cross half of your height in cm. That is waist to height ratio should be 0.5:1. Anything more than this value is high risk for diseases. In healthy Indian and As ian population, the waist size should not cross 90cm (35") for male & 80cm (31") for female. This method is relatively easier than the BMI. If the measure of your waistline (in cm) is more than half the value of your height (in cm) you certainly are not of normal weight. The only glitch in this method is while we can tell if we are normal weight or not, we cannot ascertain which category of obesity we fall under. So any day BMI calculation is more scientifically approved.
