Welcome to ”Gallbladder Gone? Now What: A Podcast for Christian Women”—where faith meets functional health with your host, Jami McQuivey: Holistic Nutritionist, boy mom, grandma, and passionate believer in God’s design for healing.
Every year, over 1.2 million Americans lose their gallbladders—most of them women. But what comes next? For too many, the answer is pain, confusion, and being dismissed by modern medicine. That was Jami’s story too—until she discovered the truth: managing symptoms isn’t the same as healing.
If you’re tired of bloating, fatigue, hormone imbalances, weight gain, or fear around food—this podcast is for you. Jami shares real, practical insights rooted in research, global wisdom, and the Word of God. Her approach is different: she doesn’t mask symptoms—she helps you heal the root cause with timeless principles that have helped women for generations.
Here, we get practical, biblical, and real—because your health matters, your story matters, and God hasn’t forgotten you.
No gallbladder? No problem. There’s a plan—and there’s hope.

🎙️ Episode 5: Gallbladder Gone? These 6 Must-Eat Foods Are Gold
What actually happens to your digestion when your gallbladder is gone?
Why do some foods leave you feeling bloated, gassy, constipated — or running to the bathroom — while others seem to go down just fine?
And more importantly… are there foods that can help you feel normal again? That support your liver, bile flow, and gut, even without that tiny but mighty organ?
In today’s episode, I’m sharing the 6 foods I consider absolute gold for life without a gallbladder. These are the foods that helped me go from groggy and helpless (yes, Jared wheeled me out of surgery before I was even conscious) — to feeling lighter, clearer, and in control of my digestion again.
And remember this powerful truth from 1 Corinthians 10:31:
“Whether therefore ye eat, or drink, or whatsoever ye do, do all to the glory of God.”
Even how you eat can be an act of worship.
