What is released by the liver to digest fats?

The liver releases bile to digest fats. Bile is a fluid produced by the liver and stored in the gallbladder. It helps break down fats into smaller molecules so that they can be absorbed by the body. Bile is made up of water, bile salts, cholesterol, and phospholipids. Bile salts are the main components of bile and are responsible for breaking down fats. Cholesterol and phospholipids help to stabilize the bile and prevent it from forming crystals.
