Summary
In this podcast, we’re going to talk about what’s behind the yellow bumpy patches around your eyelids.
This is a condition called xanthelasma. Xanthelasma is more prevalent with:
• Pregnancy
• Diabetes
• Obesity
• Hypothyroidism
• Gallbladder issues (cholestasis and biliary cirrhosis)
As I dug around for research, I found that xanthelasma is associated with the gallbladder.
Xanthelasma is when cholesterol deposits form underneath the skin. These can also be known as plaques.
When you have scar tissue around the bile ducts, the bile starts to back up into the liver, bloodstream, and body tissues. This is why you see cholesterol building up under the skin around your eyes.
Without the adequate production and release of bile, cholesterol can’t be fully broken down.
The key is to restore healthy bile levels.
The best remedies for xanthelasma are:
• Purified bile salts
• Castor oil and apple dicer vinegar (topically applied with a cotton ball)
• Normalize hormone levels (estrogen and insulin)
• Healthy Keto

| 0:00.0 | Welcome to the Dr. Berg's Healthy Keto and Interminate Fasting Podcast, where Dr. |
| 0:07.7 | Berg takes you on the journey for the truth about getting healthy and losing healthy weight. |
| 0:22.7 | So what's behind those little yellow bumpy patches, either on top of the eyelids or around |
| 0:28.7 | the eyelids? It's a condition called xanthol asthma. If you look this up, there's not a lot |
| 0:35.2 | of information about this as far as what causes this. They talk about it being more prevalent |
| 0:39.8 | in pregnancy, diabetes, obesity, hypothyroidism, gallbladder issues, et cetera, et cetera. |
| 0:48.0 | So when I did a little digging, I found some interesting information, specifically with |
| 0:52.8 | the gallbladder, because if you think about what's happening, we're getting these cholesterol |
| 0:57.0 | deposits that are forming underneath the skin, right through the eye. But when you really |
| 1:03.1 | think about what this is, we really have these cholesterol plaques underneath the skin. |
| 1:08.4 | And so why would the body develop these cholesterol things underneath the skin? Well, there's |
| 1:14.1 | a couple of clues to what's going on. There's a condition called primary, gullery cirrhosis. |
| 1:21.0 | That's where you get scar tissue within the bile ducts. And what happens is the bile |
| 1:25.9 | starts backing up into the liver, backing up into the blood, and getting backed up into |
| 1:31.2 | the tissues. And this is why you see a higher incidence of this condition in people with |
| 1:35.8 | primary, billyroid cirrhosis. You also see this in something called coliostasis, where |
| 1:41.6 | the bile ducts actually become plugged up or even completely blocked. And so they back |
| 1:46.3 | up into the system. So really, that's what we're having. We're getting this blockage |
| 1:50.6 | of this bile. So now the cholesterol cannot be broken down. And the cholesterol is backing |
| 1:55.1 | up into the skin to the tissues. So the solution is purified bile salts. Okay, you want |
| 2:02.0 | to start taking those on a regular basis to open up the ducts to make sure this bile |
| 2:06.9 | is emulsified and broken down. Very, very important. A gallstone is a super concentrated |
