Chinese Herbs for Gallstones and Kidney Stones
Lysmachia, jin qian cao, "gold coin herb" is used for gallstones and for kidney stones. Combine this herb with
Artemesia Capillaris (yin chen), Bupleurum (chai hu), and Gardenia seed (zhi zi) to optimize its use for gallstones. Ingesting mixtures of oily and acidic foods, such as olive oil and lemon juice are meant to act as solvents to dissolve the fatty gallstones. The Chinese patent medicine, Li Dan Pian, uses pig bile as a solvent. It can be effective in mild to moderate cases.
