In biliary system, Gall bladder diseases (GBD) are the most common disorder, and most of the cases are asymptomatic. It is also one of the most common diseases affecting 10–15% of Caucasian adults (racial group having light-colored skin; white) in developed countries have GBD.
To explore the evidence on patients’ knowledge on common gallbladder diseases, as well as their practice regarding dietary management of GBD.
Pub Med and EBSCO were searched for reviews on knowledge and practice regarding dietary management among patients affected with GBD.
The accessible literature refines to get 7 qualitative studies. In this narrative review, 6 research studies supported that dietary management is helpful in gallbladder diseases and may provide proper health, if it is followed. 1 research study shows that there is no remarkable result of low-fat diet in the prevention of gastrointestinal symptoms and specially gallstones.
Gallbladder diseases can not only be treated with medicines, but it actually requires dietary management so that it can be treated with diet.
