Guide To Treating And Preventing Acute Cholecystitis

Fasting To Reduce Gallbladder Strain

ShapeMagazine

The gallbladder holds bile produced by the liver, which is used to help the body to digest fats and break down the essential nutrients found in the fats. When individuals eat, especially fatty foods, the liver will produce more bile that goes into the gallbladder. If a blockage is present, it will result in too much bile in the gallbladder. Fasting to reduce gallbladder strain is highly recommended to help to reduce the amount of bile being held in the gallbladder. Patients will most likely be given IV fluids during this fasting to reduce the risk of dehydration.
