  • Modifiable risk factors
    • Cholecystectomy
    • obesity
    • low-fiber, high-calorie, high-fat diet
    • pregnancy
    • prolonged fasting
    • rapid weight loss
    • lack of physical activity
  • Non-modifiable risk factors
    • Age: older adults typically have a higher risk for gallstones
    • Gender: women are more likely to have gallstones
    • Ethnicity: Asians, American Indians, and Mexican Americans are at higher risk for gallstones
    • Family history: genetics may play a role. [1].[2]
