Describe the enterohepatic circulation of bile
?Bile is made in the liver from cholesterol, which is then sent to the gallbladder for storage. After eating, bile is released into the small intestines to emulsify fats in this organ. As it progresses through the small intestine, the bile can either be reabsorbed for reuse or is trapped by soluble fiber and removed in the feces.
