Bile is secreted by the liver, specifically by liver cells called hepatocytes. Once produced, bile is stored in the gallbladder until it is needed for digestion, particularly for the emulsification of fats in the small intestine. During digestion, the gallbladder releases bile into the duodenum, aiding in the absorption of fat-soluble vitamins and the digestion of dietary fats.

What does the gallbladder produce?

The Gall Bladder stores and secretes bile. The liver removes bilirubin from the blood, turns it into bile, secretes it into the common bile duct, some goes into the small intestines but most goes into the gall bladder, (the gall bladder is highly absorbent and removes water, thickening and concentrating the bile ), the gall bladder stores the bile (which is used by the intestines to break down fats), and releases the bile when fatty food enters the small intestine from the pyloric sphincter of the stomach. Contraction and secretion of bile by the gallbladder is stimulated by the enzyme cholecystokinin, which is released by the duodenum in response to fats detected in the lumen of the duodenum
