Bile salts primarily work in the small intestine, where they aid in the digestion and absorption of dietary fats. They act as emulsifiers, breaking down large fat globules into smaller micelles, which facilitates the action of pancreatic lipase, an enzyme that further digests fats. Additionally, bile salts help in the absorption of fat-soluble vitamins (A, D, E, and K) and other lipids across the intestinal lining.
