Bile is produced by the liver and stored in the gall bladder until needed. When one eats a fat-containing meal, bile helps to effectively digest and absorb the fat. In a person whose gall bladder is removed, the bile still flows into the intestine from the liver but fat digestion becomes less effective as the bile is not concentrated.




In a person with a well functioning gall bladder, the gall bladder concentrates bile by removing water through its walls. This concentrated bile helps in effective fat digestion and absorption through intestinal walls. When gall bladder is removed, the bile is less concentrated that’s all.


You do not have to reduce the bile. After gall bladder removal, fat and fiber tolerance varies among individuals. Hence, you may get frequent gas problems.
