Fueling Your Body Without a Gallbladder

After gallbladder removal, your fat emulsification capacity drops 50-70%, making standard high-fat meals a recipe for bloating and misery. But what if you're physically working hard and need 3,000 calories a day? This episode breaks down the physiology of bile-free digestion, the role of MCT oil as a bile-bypassing calorie source, and why zero-fat diets actually sabotage your metabolism. We build actual quantified meals — breakfast, lunch, dinner — designed for post-cholecystectomy bodies that need real fuel, not sad diet food.
