What nutrients digested in gallbladder?
The gallbladder primarily stores and concentrates bile, which is produced by the liver. Bile plays a crucial role in the digestion of fats by emulsifying them, allowing for better absorption of fat-soluble vitamins (A, D, E, and K) and fatty acids in the small intestine. While the gallbladder itself does not digest nutrients, it aids in the digestion of dietary fats when bile is released into the digestive tract.

How is meat digested?
Meat primarily consists of Protein and fat. Stomach produces gastric acid, pepsin and other digestive enzymes to break down proteins. Liver, produces digestive juice-bile. Bile is stored between meals in the gallbladder. At mealtime, it is squeezed out of the gallbladder, through the bile ducts, and into the intestine to mix with the fat in food. The bile acids dissolve fat into the watery contents of the intestine, much like detergents that dissolve grease from a frying pan. After fat is dissolved, it is digested by enzymes from the pancreas and the lining of the intestine.
