Pear in its raw form or even as a fresh juice is another excellent remedy to treat gall stones.

Dandelion is also known to promote and enhance the well being of the gall bladder. Approximately 125 ml of the juices of dandelion and watercress must be had twice daily. Along with a strict vegetarian diet, and low sugar foods, the juice helps to normalize the gall bladder functionalities.
