Now, as you may know, I've done a lot of videos on the gallbladder and bile salts because

of the great importance of that organ, which is typically considered an extra organ that

you don't need, but the gallbladder is very, very important. It helps you store and concentrate

bile salts. Now, your liver makes bile and so do your friendly bacteria. Now, about 95 to 97%

of all the bile that your body makes is recycled. So, bile is very, very important. And when

you take bile salts as a supplement, normally people take that with a meal. They might take it

bile salts and taking them on an empty stomach. Now, I've pretty much purchased every single

medical textbook on both the gallbladder and bile salts. So, it's a fascinating topic. I want

to discuss, I would recommend taking purified bile salts on an empty stomach. I would take one

in the morning and one in the afternoon. All right. Number one, taking purified bile salts can help

you reduce the risk of getting gallstones. Why? Because a gallstone is a super concentrated

gallbladder crystal compound. And bile salts help you prevent the formation of cholesterol crystals.

Okay. That's number one. Number two, it helps you extract the fat side of vitamins vitamin A,

E, D, vitamin K, and the omega-3 fatty acids. And what it does to fat is it emulsifies the fat.

It breaks down the fat into these small particles, which increase the surface area. So the pancreas

can release its enzyme called lipase, which then does the rest of the dissolving of that fat
