After the excruciating experience of passing a gallstone, your doctor tells you to avoid further occurrences that your gallbladder must be removed so you can avoid that pain once and for all. We humans are all about avoiding pain so you have the surgery and find you have traded one set of symptoms for another. When you ask the doctor about this he says, "It will pass", or "Eat this not that" -an idea he did not mention before. Putting the gallbladder back is not an option, but the new symptoms are hard to live with: stomach aches, bloating, and embarrassing episodes of diarrhea.
I strongly recommend that people who are considering this surgery first look at natural options, because removing a functional organ from your digestive tract is never a health-enhancing solution. It's just something that's too easy for conventional medicine to do. They do hundreds of thousands of these surgeries a year. They don’t consider it a big deal so the patients don’t think it’s a big deal either!
But it really is a big deal. It's sort of like saying, "Well, doctor, my tongue hurts." And the doctor says, "Let's cut out your tongue." In fact, your gallbladder is far more important for digestion than your tongue.
Do everything you can to protect your gallbladder. Along those lines, one of the most important things you need to do is physically massage your internal organs through body movement. A lot of people are surprised to hear this, but your internal organs need to be massaged just like your muscles and skin.
Massage therapy is something that I recommend everyone pursue to enhance his or her health. Massage moves lymph fluid around the body. It stimulates the skin. It even stimulates the brain indirectly and helps create an immunostimulating relaxation response in virtually everyone. The internal organs need this same massage and the very best way to massage these internal organs, such as the gallbladder, is to engage in gentle body movement exercises.
Also along those lines, one of the most important things you need to do is engage in breathing therapy because conscious breathing and deep breathing offers an outstanding massage to all the internal organs in your torso. Your lungs take up a tremendous amount of space in your chest cavity, and when you inhale and really expand your lungs, you are moving the other organs in your cavity and giving them a massage at the same time. Breathing is an excellent way to oxygenate your internal organs and get some movement.
Your average conventional medicine physician isn’t going to recommend any of this -- nor will he or she even believe any of it. They've never been taught that massage is important for internal organs. In fact, most doctors I know don't think massage is useful at all, which sort of just goes to show you how little they know about how the human body really works! But massage is critical. And of course, so is nutrition. Once again, your best strategy here for your gallbladder is to avoid removing it. Instead, support gallbladder health through diet, nutrition, and physical exercise.

Laparoscopic removal of the gallbladder
Definition Of Gallbladder And Its Functions
Gallbladder is a small, muscular and pear-shaped structure on the underside of the liver, on the right side of the abdomen. It’s function is storage of the bile (bile tastes bitter, hence the word bitterness). Gallbladder holds about a quarter of a cup of a yellowish-green, pasty material called bile. Bile is produced in the liver before the bile is secreted into the intestines, which then helps the body to digest fats.
A healthy gallbladder keeps bile moving in several ways: mucosa, the inner lining, secretes hydrogen ions into the gallbladder contents, which maintains the balance of acidic environment, that keeps calcium from precipitating, and consequently forming gallbladder stones. Next, as food is digested, bile is washed away by water and electrolytes.

Symptoms Of Gallbladder Disease
A gallbladder attack consists of abdominal pain in the right upper quadrant, just under the rib cage on the right side, and is usually followed by nausea and vomiting. Pain may be severe and can last even up to several hours, and is often followed by soreness of abdominal area for at least few days. Attacks are usually caused by fatty meals. In some cases, patients even have fever and chills. In more severe cases gallbladder stone symptoms indicate jaundice.
Gallbladder Disease Treatment, Risks And Diet
Surgery is most common solution for gallbladder problems. The treatment involves removing the gallbladder, and in most cases is done by using laparoscopic surgery. However, even after surgery certain risks are still present. To avoid any sort of complications, patient must strictly follow healthy diet. One must eat low-fat, high in fiber and preferably organic food. Refined carbohydrates and hydrogenated oils must be avoid. Probiotic products, such as yogurts are often recommended (although over consumption of dairy products is discouraged). With the removal of the gallbladder, the liver may be ‘overloaded’, you must reduce the chemical footprint on the liver. This can include pre-packaged food, minimizing use of perfumes, cosmetics and even personal care products.
Why is diet and elimination of all those products so important?
Once the gallbladder is gone, there’s nowhere for that bile to collect. Instead of that, fatty foods cannot be regulated as it was before when person still had a gallbladder. Without bile to regulate the fat, the small intestine can become flooded with water. This happens because the fat draws water from surrounding regions of the body, which, when combined with intestinal bacteria, can cause bloating, bad diarrhea, and stomach aches. The body adapts to the gallbladder‘s absence over time, and few months after the surgery patient should be able to resume more or less regular eating habits.
