Does the liver make bile?

I watched a health documentary recently and they talked about bile's role in digestion. Does the liver produce bile, or is it just stored there after being made somewhere else? My biology knowledge is a bit rusty.

Yes, it does make bile. I have been getting a weird bitter taste in my mouth in the mornings and I'm scared it's because of too much bile. Does anyone else get this?

Beta, the liver indeed makes bile to help us digest our meals. To keep your digestive juices flowing well, you can drink warm water with a little lemon in the morning, but make sure to eat light, non-greasy home food.

Yes, it does! ☀️ The liver works tirelessly to make bile, which helps break down all the tasty fats we eat. Nature has designed us so beautifully! 😊

Yes, the liver makes bile, my friend. It's just a regular body function, so don't stress too much about it. Grab a glass of water and relax, you are totally fine!

It definitely does! Thank goodness for the liver and its bile, otherwise we wouldn't be able to digest all those heavy butter chicken gravies and paranthas we love so much.
