Diet recommended for cholecystitis

Cholecystitis or inflammation of the gallbladder, occurs if it gets infected with infection of the blood from the intestine. As a result, much less bile begins to be released into the digestive tract, namely, that prevents the normal digestion of fatty foods. Usually, doctors recommend not only taking medicines, but also advise to adhere to a special diet. It helps to isolate bile and eliminate inflammation.
