Gallbladder Dysfunction? Hiatal Hernia as a Cause – Video

Gallbladder Symptoms? Check for Hiatal Hernia Syndrome

In this video, Dr. Vikki Petersen explains the connection between gallbladder dysfunction and hiatal hernia syndrome. Many patients undergo gallbladder removal surgery, believing it to be the source of their symptoms, only to find no relief. The gallbladder plays a key role in digestion by storing and releasing bile, which can become thickened due to dehydration, poor diet, or thyroid imbalances. She highlights how gallbladder issues often stem from insulin resistance and digestive inflammation, which also increase intra-abdominal pressure, worsening acid reflux and hiatal hernia symptoms. Dr. Petersen advocates for a natural approach to healing, emphasizing diet, hydration, and gut health.
