Gall bladder Diet 

Gall bladder is a pear shaped sac in the upper part of the abdomen. Concentration of bile acid in the gall bladder results in stones. Abdominal pain is the common symptom and this condition calls for gall bladder removal. People who undergo gall bladder removal, are at great risk for diarrhoea.
 
High fibre foods help in binding with the water, thereby providing bulk to the stools. Pasta, brown rice and whole grains prove beneficial. Relaxation and stress free life is helpful. Natural supplements of bile salts are recommended, under the guidance of a physician. Vitamin and mineral supplements are beneficial in compensating the problems associated with digestion. Foods such as fried foods, those containing Trans fats and saturated fats are avoided.

Caffeinated and alcoholic beverages are completely avoided. Beans and legumes are abstained from, as they raise the cholesterol levels in the bile, thereby causing trouble in fat digestion. Refined foods and artificial sweeteners are not recommended. Vegetables like brinjal, beets, cucumber, garlic, cucumber and garlic prove beneficial. Avocado, tomatoes, grapes, apple, papaya, berries and pears are helpful. Omega 3 fatty acid in flax and hemp is useful.
