If you want to live a healthy life even if you’ve just had your gallbladder removed, then there’s good news for you! You can definitely live without a gallbladder, and you can maintain a healthy and fit lifestyle without it, as long as you stick to a diet.

Gallbladder removal surgery is performed on about one million Americans every year. Since you can live without it, many doctors suggest extraction once it becomes inflamed. Typically, inflammation occurs because of the emergence of gallstones. 

The medical term for removing the gallbladder is called Cholecystectomy. If you’re reading this, then you probably already know that most gallbladder removals are done through laparoscopic techniques. This means there’s very little invasion of the body and only a tiny cut is made. This also means that some people only need one night to recover from the surgery before being discharged from the hospital. 

Physical activity is often limited a few days after the surgery. You may also be told to take certain medications to limit pain and infection post-operation. The advice of the doctor may vary depending on how healthy you are, to begin with.

No matter how long you stayed in the hospital after your surgery, however, it bears noting that the Gallbladder Removal Diet is a life-long commitment. This guide is designed to help you through those years.
