How does bile work?

1) Detergent properties break up and form micelles with triglycerides and phospholipids in food. 2) Enables lipid degrading enzymes to act 3) Promotes absorption of fats and fat soluble vitamins has an affinity for water and fat so it can bring fat into the water. after emulsification , more fat is exposed to enzymes making fat digestion more efficient.

Digestion of fats in small intestine

Cholecystokinin(cck) signals the gallbladder to release bile(via the common bile duct). Fat is emulsified by bile. Pancreatic lipase flows in from the pancreas via the pancreatic duct. Emulsified fat (triglycerides) become monoglycerides because of pancreatic and intestinal lipase.
