Can people with intrahepatic bile duct stones eat eggs?
In general, patients with intrahepatic bile duct stones are advised not to eat eggs. Intrahepatic bile duct stones refer to stones formed within the intrahepatic biliary system, which are typically composed of crystallized bile, bilirubin, cholesterol, and other substances. Since eggs contain high levels of cholesterol, their consumption may promote the formation of intrahepatic bile duct stones. Therefore, individuals with this condition should avoid eating eggs as much as possible. If any discomfort occurs, prompt medical attention is recommended.
