  I am taking Beta-Plus, which was recommended by my acupuncturist. I
  tend to take it with meals that have high fat and think I may need a
  little help (more so than just fiber caps, etc). I’m going to buy
  another bottle, have gone through 2 bottles so far. I think it helps.
  One caution - they recommend you vary your dose as to not get
  dependent on it as a replacement for natural bile. I tend to take 1
  or 2 tablets at a meal. Usually once a day/every other day.

  Thank you, Julie. I was wondering about it. If one doesn’t have a GB, then
  I’m glad that there’s something that can help the problems. Who knows, those
  of us trying to do the cleanse may still have to have our GB out. All I know
  is to keep on trying. I’m also hoping that the Beta TCP will help for those
  of us who do still have our GBs, but have these gallstones to contend with.
  I’m hoping that it thins my bile down good, and if anyone else tries it, I
  hope that it helps them.

  Beta Plus⢠- Source of organic whole beet concentrate and purified bile
  salts. Use with constipation, biliary insufficiency (light colored stools) or
  where
  the gall bladder has been removed and the symptoms of gall bladder
  dysfunction are still present (pain over the eyes, pain in the webbing between
  the right
  thumb and fore finger, pain between the shoulder blades, gas bloating,
  inability to tolerate fats or fried foods, etc.).
  This is from Dr. Mercola’s website, quote:
  COMMENT: Surgeons remove nearly ONE MILLION gallbladders per year. Nearly
  every single one of these could have been prevented. The diet I mention in the
  above comment, as this study suggests, is an important foundational treatment.
  However, many people with excellent diets will still have problems. As I
  mentioned last week, the amino acid taurine and whole beet concentrates tend to
  thin
  
  the bile in the gallbladder. This thins the sludge and allows it to flow and
  exit the gallbladder so it can perform its main function which is to emulsify
  fats so they can be absorbed. Biotics is a supplement company generally only
  available in physicianâs offices. Their excellent product that has these
  nutrients is Beta TCP. If someone already has their gallbladder removed one can
  use
  their product with bile salts called Beta Plus. If you or someone you know has
  had their gallbladder removed, it will be important to take some form of bile
  salts with EVERY meal for the rest of your life. Failure to do this will
  contribute significantly to the development of chronic disease through fat
  malabsorption and its secondary disruption of prostaglandin balance.
