The liver uses cholesterol to produce bile, which is essential for digestion and absorption of fats in the intestine. Bile acids, derived from cholesterol, help emulsify fats, making them easier to digest and absorb. This process plays a crucial role in maintaining lipid metabolism and overall digestive health.
