Gall Bladder Surgery Diet 

After a surgery in which gall bladder is removed complications is very rare and you will observe that the pain and other symptoms are completely disappeared. In most of the cases there are no harms or after effects, but only 10% of the people may suffer from diarrhea. This is because bile is no longer stored in the gall bladder after it is removed and is instead delivered directly to the small intestine. But majority of the people may lead a perfectly normal life without any after effects as the bile duct which is found above the gall bladder tends to enlarge and help to store bile and release it after a meal.

A person need not follow a low-fat diet after the removal of gall bladder (unless any unpleasant symptoms are noticed) as the bile which is a prerequisite is the digestion of fat is still present in the small intestine. However following surgery a low fat diet is suggested, but gradually as a person recovers from the surgery fat can be added in the diet. But in general a well balanced diet with loads of fresh fruits, vegetables, whole cereal grains and its products and sprouts are recommended as they besides being nutritious they are also low in fat.
