Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Bile helps with digestion. It breaks down fats into fatty acids, which can be taken into the body by the digestive tract.
Detailed explanation-2: -Bile acids have long been known to facilitate digestion and absorption of lipids in the small intestine as well as regulate cholesterol homeostasis (1, 2).
Detailed explanation-3: -Bile aids in the digestion of lipids, primarily triglycerides, through emulsification. Emulsification is a process in which large lipid globules are broken down into several small lipid globules. These small globules are widely distributed in the chyme rather than forming large aggregates.
