What is "gallbladder"?
The gallbladder is a small organ located beneath the liver on the upper right side of the abdomen. Its main function is to store and concentrate bile, a digestive fluid produced by the liver. When we consume fatty foods, the gallbladder releases bile into the small intestine through the bile ducts. Bile helps in the digestion and absorption of fats by breaking them down into smaller molecules. The gallbladder plays a crucial role in the digestive process by assisting in the breakdown and absorption of dietary fats, aiding in the overall digestion and absorption of nutrients in the body.

The gallbladder plays a crucial role in the digestive process by storing bile produced by the liver until it's needed for digestion.
The absence of a gallbladder doesn't typically impair digestion significantly, as bile can still flow from the liver directly into the small intestine, albeit in a less concentrated manner.
In cases of severe gallbladder disease or gallstones, surgical removal of the gallbladder, known as cholecystectomy, may be necessary to alleviate symptoms and prevent complications.
