A. If you have gallstones, consuming walnuts can have both positive and negative effects. Here's what you should consider: *Positive effects:* 1. Anti-inflammatory properties: Walnuts contain antioxidants and polyphenols that may help reduce inflammation in the gallbladder. 2. Cholesterol reduction: Walnuts are rich in healthy fats, which can help lower cholesterol levels, potentially reducing the risk of gallstone formation. 3. Fiber content: Walnuts are a good source of dietary fiber, which can help regulate digestion and potentially improve gallbladder function. *Negative effects:* 1. High fat content: Walnuts are high in fat, which can trigger gallbladder contractions and worsen symptoms in people with gallstones. 2. Potential for cholesterol increase: While walnuts can help lower cholesterol, they are also high in cholesterol-raising fats, which may exacerbate gallstone formation. 3. Risk of gallstone obstruction: If you have large gallstones, eating walnuts may increase the risk of obstruction, as the nut's high fiber and fat content can potentially dislodge stone 1. Consult your doctor or a registered dietitian for personalized advice. 2. Eat walnuts in moderation (about 1 ounce or 28g per day). 3. Choose smaller, chopped walnuts to reduce the risk of obstruction. 4. Avoid eating walnuts if you have: - Large gallstones - Severe gallstone symptoms - A history of gallstone obstructions
