Gallbladder Function Animation
View other drafts
Your gallbladder is a small, pear-shaped organ located under your liver. It stores bile, a yellow-green liquid that helps your body digest fats.
When you eat fatty foods, your gallbladder contracts and releases bile into the small intestine. Bile helps to break down fats into smaller droplets, which can then be absorbed by the body.
The gallbladder also helps to regulate the flow of bile into the small intestine. This helps to ensure that there is enough bile available to digest fats, but not too much, which could cause diarrhea.
The gallbladder is an important part of the digestive system, and it plays a vital role in helping us to digest fats. Without a gallbladder, we would have difficulty digesting fatty foods, and we would be at risk of nutrient deficiencies.
Here are some of the specific functions of the gallbladder:
Stores bile: The gallbladder stores bile, which is a liquid produced by the liver that helps to digest fats.
Releasing bile: When you eat fatty foods, the gallbladder contracts and releases bile into the small intestine.
Breaking down fats: Bile helps to break down fats into smaller droplets, which can then be absorbed by the body.
Regulating bile flow: The gallbladder helps to regulate the flow of bile into the small intestine.
If you have any problems with your gallbladder, such as gallstones, it can affect your ability to digest fats. This can lead to symptoms such as abdominal pain, nausea, and vomiting.
If you think you may have a gallbladder problem, be sure to see your doctor for diagnosis and treatment.
