This leads people to believe that foods high in cholesterol and fat should be avoided. The truth is that insulin is what causes this super-saturation. Making matters worse is the fact that a low-fat diet will cause the gallbladder not to empty, allowing the saturated bile to sit there for a long time and become crystallized, forming gallstones. With a healthy, high-fat / low-carb, diet, the gallbladder will empty on a regular basis and there won't be any over saturation of the bile. One last thing is that once gallstones are created, a high-fat diet will cause the gallbladder to empty, with the stones, and this will be painful. Don't misinterpret this pain as being from the high-fat diet, but rather from the gallbladders elimination of the gallstones that a high-carb diet created. Sticking to a low-fat diet will keep the pain down, but only temporarily as the gallstones continue to increase in size and number.

I have a friend that is having problems with gallstones and she has to "avoid fatty foods" because they cause her pain, or at least that's the belief. I remember reading something about sugar and kidney stones but couldn't find anything online regarding gallstones?
