Gallbladder & Bile Flow

Digesting Fats with Ease

Why it matters:
The gallbladder stores bile, which helps digest fats. Poor bile flow causes bloating, nausea, and poor fat absorption. Supporting gallbladder function improves digestion and nutrient absorption.

How it works:

  • Taurine → supports bile acid production.
  • Artichoke Extract → stimulates bile flow.
  • Ox Bile (supplement) → replaces missing bile in people without a gallbladder.
  • Lecithin → breaks down fats for easier absorption.
  • Bitter Herbs (dandelion, gentian) → stimulate natural bile release.

Foods that help:

  • Beets, artichokes, radishes → bile-friendly foods
  • Eggs, fish → natural taurine sources
  • Sunflower lecithin → supports fat breakdown
  • Bitter greens (arugula, endive) → natural bile stimulants

Lifestyle tip:

Eat smaller meals with healthy fats (olive oil, avocado) to keep bile flowing regularly.

Helpful for:

  • Bloating after fatty meals
  • Post-gallbladder removal digestion
  • Fat-soluble vitamin absorption issues
