Should I go off Keto before my gallbladder surgery?
I have been Keto and intermittent fasting for three months. Now because of a cancer scare I have to have my gallbladder removed in 2 weeks. Should I go off Keto before surgery? Everyone keeps telling me I will get very sick eating fat right after gallbladder surgery. I feel so good, no symptoms and if it were not for my history of cancer I would refuse the surgery. Please help.

Hey Judy, I think this will be a judgment call for yourself. I probably won’t add on a lot of dietary fat before the surgery. I do not have a gallbladder and I do ok on keto (but I don’t keto all the time, just as a cleanse). If I am following a strict protocol I’ll need to take a dietary enzyme with meals to help my body break down the fat. Good luck on your surgery!
