A person has his/her gall bladder removed and as a result ________.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The gall bladder plays a role in the digestion of fats by storing and releasing bile. Without a gall bladder, the body still produces bile but it is not stored and released in the same way. As a result, some people may find that they are more sensitive to high-fat meals and may need to limit their fat intake or only eat small amounts of fat at a time. It is not true that a person will die without a gall bladder, nor can they eat as much fat as desired without consequences. The removal of the gall bladder does not affect the ability to eat solid meals. Liquid diets may be recommended for a short period of time after surgery, but are not a permanent necessity.
