Gall Bladder Glands

The gallbladder glands are an anatomical formation of the human body that plays an important role in the process of digestion and metabolism. They are located in the upper right part of the abdomen and are a group of sacs filled with a secretion called bile. The main function of the gall bladder glands is to prepare food for further digestion in the intestine by activating enzymes and secreting bile.

Bile secretion occurs continuously throughout the day, so the glands work on a constant basis. Bile enters the intestines and falls on particles of undigested food to help the body break them down into the substances it needs. In particular, bile plays the role of an important enzyme in the process of digesting fatty foods.

People with impaired biliary tract function or impaired bile circulation may experience various diseases of the digestive system. These include cholelithiasis, liver cirrhosis, chronic cholecystitis and other pathologies. To prevent such problems, we should take care of our health and watch what we eat.
