Condition analysis:
The gallbladder is a small organ that is located in the right side of your abdomen just below your ribs and sits under the liver. It is mainly a storage organ that helps in the digestion of fat and helps to make bile more concentrated to increase its effect on fat cells. Bile that is produced by the liver travels into the gallbladder through channels known as bile ducts and is stored there. Food that contains fat enters the digestive system and stimulates hormones. these hormones cause contraction of the gallbladder and this contraction of the gallbladder, allows the gallbladder to release the bile into the small intestine to allow for absorption of fat to take place. The most common reason for a gallbladder to be removed is the formation of gallstones.

Instructions:
Diet for Gall Bladder Disorders: Dietary recommendations for gall bladder disorders aim more to prevent these disorders than to treat them. However, to some extent, a diet for gallbladder inflammation and gall stones would be very similar. Most of these recommendations will also reduce the severity and frequency of gall bladder attacks after you develop a gall bladder disorder.

First of all, it is important to have a healthy intake of fats ? on the whole, you should limit the amount of fat that you consume, and you should also ensure that a large proportion of these fats are healthy fats, such as omega 3 fatty acids and monounsaturated fats. Fiber is also an important dietary element for preventing and managing gall stones, so be sure to eat plenty of whole grain, fruits, and vegetables. At the same time, restrict your intake of sugar, since it is known to increase the risk of gall bladder disorders.
