Since the gall bladder acts as a storage area for bile, there is a slow "drip" of bile into the digestive system without this organ. Some people have digestive distress, simply as a result of bile irritation. Often, more frequent small meals help relieve some of this irritation. With a gall bladder, fats often stimulate the release of bile. So, without a gall bladder, eating fatty foods may cause inefficient digestion and digestive distress. So, certainly try lean chicken, etc. to see how your body reacts. You may also choose some supplements such as apple cider vinegar, probiotics, ox bile, gentian/scuttelaria etc. to improve the efficiency of your digestive process. http://www.countrydoc.com Dr. Karen Benton, Naturopathic Physician
