What is a bile salt?
Bile salts are compounds produced in the liver from cholesterol and stored in the gallbladder. They help in the digestion and absorption of fats by emulsifying lipids in the small intestine to aid in their breakdown by enzymes. Bile salts also play a role in the elimination of waste and toxins from the body.
Which emulsifying agent should you use to make it a clear micro emulsion of essential oils in water?
Sodium Choleate- it is a bile salt that serves as an emulsifying agent; which aids in the suspension of triglycerides in water. I'm not going to lie, I do not know how or why, but I just did it in my chemistry class last week.

Is bile the same as bile salts?
no, bile is different from bile salt.bile is the secretion of the liver consisting of water, bile salt,bile pigment,cholestorol,lecithin and several ion it emulsifies lipids prior to their digestion.
What role does the bile play in digestion?
Function of Bile juiceBile juice helps in emulsificaton of fats.How Bile emulsifies fatsBile is alkaline solution. Its molecules have dual nature (one end is attracted to water molecule while other is attracted to aft molecule). Thus its molecules remain in between water molecules and fat molecules (emulsification process).If bile molecules were not present between fats and water, the fat molecules would be repelled by water molecules and be attracted to each other. The fat molecules would merge together because fats are insoluble in water. The merged fats would not be easily broken down with lipase (fat digesting enzyme).So bile attractes the fat molecules and separate them from each other. It makes the fat digestion easier.
What are the three enzymes named?
Bile, catalyst and salt
Gallstones are usually composed of?
Bile is the major vehicle for cholesterol excretion from the body, and bile salt keeps the cholesterol dissolved within bile. to much cholesterol or to little bile salt is what causes gallstones to happen. they are made up of cholesterol. see page 885 anatomy and physiology 8th
What type of organic compound does bile break down?
salt
How can I naturally increase bile salt production in my body?
To naturally increase bile salt production in your body, you can try consuming foods rich in fiber, such as fruits, vegetables, and whole grains. Additionally, incorporating healthy fats like olive oil, avocados, and nuts into your diet can also help stimulate bile production. Regular exercise and staying hydrated are also important factors in promoting bile salt production.
