Does the liver produce bile?

Question

After eating a heavy meal, my mom sometimes says 'digestive juices'. I was thinking about how digestion works. Does the liver actually produce bile that helps with digestion, or does it just store it?

I am new here, but yes, I read that the liver produces bile. Does that mean if someone has their gallbladder removed, the liver stops making bile or does it still continue?

Jisha George · Answer

Yes, the liver produces bile continuously, which is then stored in the gallbladder. If you are experiencing digestive issues after meals, it's just a normal thing to get evaluated by a practitioner.

Yes, it produces bile for fat digestion. If you suspect any liver issues, just book an online liver function test over the weekend, it saves time and gives clear results.

Yes, the liver makes bile. My daughter had some digestive issues recently and the pediatrician explained how this system works. We just kept her diet light and avoided outside food completely.

Haan na, liver makes the bile to digest all our heavy oily foods. If we eat too much junk, the liver has to work extra hard, ho na? Better to keep it simple.
