Dear Savita Goyal If gallbladder is asymptomatic, the surgery can be avoidable but the complication may occur. In general, what is required in order to prevent gallstone formation is avoiding those avoidable factors, which are known to be lithogenic. A well-balanced meal is important; however, it should contain some fat to stimulate adequate gallbladder emptying. In order to avoid an imbalance in bile constituents and precipitation of cholesterol, it is recommended to reduce saturated fat. Increasing fiber is important, since it acts as a fat magnet by reducing fat absorption, allowing the fat taken in to stimulate gallbladder emptying but not allowing it to increase weight. Reducing weight although important should be mainly through regular exercise, rapid weight loss especially through fat free diets should be avoided due to their negative effect on gallbladder emptying. Cholesterol lowering agents, although thought to be useful, may actually be harmful, since they actually work by increasing secretion of cholesterol in bile, the exact place we do not want it to be in high concentration.
