Ox bile comes from cattle and delivers concentrated bile salts. It helps break down fatty meals when your own bile supply is low.
People without a gallbladder often use it. A dose taken with a meal that contains fat helps the body emulsify oils and absorb fat soluble nutrients.
Watch your gut response when you start. Loose stools or sudden bowel movements happen until you find the amount that works for you. Skip it if you have a blocked bile duct or active gallstones. Speak with a clinician before using it during pregnancy or while on blood thinners.
