How can I clear my bowels every morning?

Drinking plenty of water and staying hydrated is a great way to regulate digestion. People who support a water flush for colon cleansing recommend drinking six to eight glasses of lukewarm water per day. Also try eating plenty of foods high in fiber & water content. This includes fruits and vegetables like watermelons, tomatoes, lettuce, and celery.

I found out I have a 13 mm gallstone but I'm not feeling any pain or discomfort right now is there any way to get rid of it without surgery

While you don't have symptoms currently with a 13mm gallstone, the best approach is usually to consult with a general surgeon. While some options exist to dissolve or remove gallstones without surgery, the decision on whether or not to intervene depends on your overall health, the size and type of gallstone, and your individual risk factors.
