The ginger mix 
Ginger is cleansing, refreshing, detoxifying and really good for your gut, but it can also aggravate gallstones, so watch your intake of ginger and consult a doctor if you are concerned. I have included this recipe because it is a good option for a post-surgery drink. Introduce it into your diet gradually though.
Ingredients
• 2 litres filtered water
• 10 slices fresh, peeled ginger
• 2 sliced organic lemons
• half a cucumber
• mint
Method
Mix all ingredients together.
Strain before drinking.
Ginger tea
Ingredients
• 10-15 slices fresh, peeled ginger (but see note about ginger in previous recipe)
• 1.5 litres filtered water
• juice of 2 organic lemons
Method
Boil the water in a pan and add the ginger.
Simmer for 20 minutes.
Add the lemon juice.
Sip throughout the day.
Lemon water
Ingredients
• juice of 4 organic lemons
• 1.5 litres filtered water
Method
Squeeze the lemon juice into the water and sip throughout the day.
(Be mindful lemon is acidic and can be hard on tooth enamel so vary this with other drinks.)
Raw vegetable juice
Ingredients
• 1 large beetroot
• 8 beetroot leaves
• 8 endive leaves
• 2 stalks celery
• ¼ red onion
• 1 large carrot
• 2 red radishes
• 1 small apple
Method
Juice all the ingredients and drink immediately.
(This makes a good breakfast juice and is an excellent way to start the day.)
Water!
If you don’t feel like bothering with the above, make sure you are drinking at least 2 litres of water a day.
A note about alcohol and gallstones
As I have already said, I drank all the way through my gallstones, and it didn’t harm them, or me, in any way. You may take a different approach, and you probably should too, but for other reasons around alcohol being a risk factor for many ailments.
Interestingly enough, and definitely worth mentioning here: I discovered during my research that some observational studies* claim that people who totally abstain from drinking alcohol can be more prone to developing gallstones.
The bottom line – don’t take my advice in this regard.
