Bile itself is not a catalyst; rather, it is a digestive fluid produced by the liver that aids in the emulsification and digestion of fats in the small intestine. While bile salts facilitate the breakdown of fat molecules, they do not change the chemical composition of the substances they interact with, which is a key characteristic of catalysts. Catalysts, by definition, speed up chemical reactions without being consumed in the process, whereas bile is actively involved in digestion.
