Are gallbladder attacks affected by the foods you eat?

No particular food appears to trigger gallbladder problems as of Feb. 2015, according to Everyday Health. However, obesity is a major contributor, which means eating a well-balanced diet and keeping weight in check can help protect against gallbladder attacks.

Fiber-rich foods including whole grains and bran cereals are among those often included in gallbladder diet plans, according to Everyday Health. Fresh fruits and vegetables, low-fat dairy, and lean meat and chicken foods are also commonly recommended. These foods are a part of a well-balanced and low-fat diet that, in combination with modest servings, can help keep weight in check and guard against gallbladder trouble.
