Many people may develop crystallizations in their kidneys and gallbladders. Some people may have literally hundreds of stones that have accumulated in their bodies. In approximately 1 out of 4 people, these crystallizations eventually grow large enough to require medical attention. These crystallizations are typically accumulations of calcium, oxalic acid, uric acid and cholesterol. Glytamins may support the body in dealing with gall stones and bile sludge (pre-crystallized bile).
Chanca Piedra, (one of the main ingredients in Glytamins) may support the dissolution of calcium oxalate and uric acid crystals, the main constituents of kidney stones.
The liver, gall bladder and hepatic ducts can all suffer from accumulations of biliary sludge and gallstones. Bile, unable to pass into the duodenum can backwash into the liver and pancreas, causing alkali burns in those organs. Traditional remedies for gallstones and biliary sludge involve drinking large quantities of epsom salts, lemon juice and olive oil in an attempt to cause powerful contractions of the gallbladder and a resulting purge of biliary sludge and gallstones. This kind of purge can be very uncomfortable and does nothing to resolve the underlying cause of these accumulations. Glytamins may support this function without uncomfortable side effects.
Bile is responsible for many aspects of our intestinal health. Bile neutralizes stomach acids, emulsifies fats, is a natural laxative and kills parasites and candida. Insufficient bile can cause ulcers, malnutrition, constipation, and allow parasitic and fungal infestations. Glytamins may support the body in maintaining proper bile manufacture and flow.
