Bile is made in the liver to move toxins out of the liver and through the gallbladder.
The gallbladder simply regulates the flow of bile into the small intestine, releasing more to help digest fat after a meal, the other function of bile.
You can live without a gallbladder, but not without a liver.
Without a gallbladder you can still make bile normally. But if you had your GB removed you still need to deal with the root cause of the problem with enough bile production and processing of toxin through numerous detox pathways so the bile is not so toxic and damaging.
One sign of lack of bile flow is constipation because bile initiates peristalsis of the intestines to contract and move out waste.
With constipation things can be backed up throughout the entire circulatory system.
If bile is not moving toxins out of the liver, toxicity can back up into the blood that delivers toxins to the liver.
Dr Chris Shade, mercury detox expert, calls this “leaky liver” after the well known “leaky gut” that leaks toxins through the intestinal lining.
Toxins circulating into the blood can back up into the brain and give you a headache, which sometimes correlates with constipation.
When toxins back up in the blood they back up in the lymph that releases waste and toxicity into the blood under the clavicle bone at the base of the neck on both sides. So to detoxify your foot the waste has to travel all the way up there. There is more volume in the lymph system than your blood, but understanding of the lymph remains murky as it does not have a charismatic organ like the heart pumping it but relies on skeletal muscle movement to move it, and on smooth muscle movement especially of its central ducts to get it going. The smooth muscle has to be there otherwise doing lymph massages on your own lying down and not moving would not work. This lymph pump was first observed directly by a surgeon when he had someone opened up in thoracic surgery.
The way lymph backs up is not literally stopping the dumping of the lymph into the subclavical vein, but by recirculating waste and toxicity from blood back into the lymph.
Part of the lymph getting overloaded is the extracelluar fluid or insterstitial fluid that is what the lymph drains; the fluid around the cells where the mitochondria are doing the work of producing energy for all functions.
The more clogged the intercellular fluid gets the harder it is for blood to saturate through capillaries into it, what is called perfusion. Perfusion is partly based on hydrolic or osmatic pressure. So elevated blood pressure indicates resistance in the system. This may also contribute to the pounding nature of headaches.
The cerebral spinal fluid is the circulatory system in the brain and spine, which is specially protected. You can infer similar connections for that.
When the lymph is not flowing freely the route directly out the skin is more likely. Skin outbreaks may actually be a more efficient way to get things out, but not the most desirable when it’s your face or it itches. On your face it’s detoxing your brain or dental areas.
It’s interesting that the gallbladder median in Chinese medicine is the longest merdian or energy path for the smallest organ: it runs from the eyes to the toes. The smallest organ may have the largest consequences because it is small tight squeeze of circulatory flows that can get blocked as a bottleneck.
In Chinese medicine calling the meridian by the name of an organ is not to reduce it to that organ, but the much larger functions of which it is a part, functions suggested by where the median runs-- all over the body, which to me implies a circulatory flow as a whole.
Gallbladder works with liver, we know why anatomically, but it’s part of the “wood element” that has a greater significance. It associated with anger, frustration, resentment, impatience and irritability.
Headaches and migraines are often considered a liver-gallbladder problem and the GB meridian runs from the eye and a pattern over the head.
Chinese medicine is a systems way of thinking and cannot be reduce to simple A to B causation. I don’t use that system, I’m thinking about things mechanically but in a systems framework.
The medical system and its companion academic research model of science separates things into separate parts. It’s the view from the microscope. It’s strength is “why?” at the chemistry and physics level but often misses the interactions of the parts as a whole.
For my PhD I studied a new paradigm of science used in engineering processes to serve customers, or the patient in this case. Circulation of liquids is something that works as whole and is a tightly coupled, continuous flow process of eliminating waste and delivering nutrients to produce energy.
