Highly Concentrated Conjugated Bile Acids

Enhances Digestion and Absorption of Fats and Fat Soluble Nutrients*

Bile Acid Factors™ consists of a mixture of highly concentrated bile acids (also called bile salts), mostly in the conjugated form, from U.S. and/or New Zealand bovine/ovine bile.

• Bile acids are produced in the liver and then stored and concentrated in the gallbladder, from which they enter the small intestines via the bile duct.
• The major bile components in Bile Acid Factors are glycocholate and taurocholate, which are crucial for fat digestion and absorption.*
• In the small intestine, bile acids emulsify fats to aid their absorption.*
• Bile acid deficiency causes fat malabsorption and fatty stools (steatorrhea), indicated by diarrhea and floating stools.*  In addition, bile acid deficiency jeopardizes a person's nutritional status by reducing the absorption of fat and fat-soluble nutrients.*
• Conjugated bile acids have been shown in clinical trials to be effective in improving fat absorption and nutritional status.*
