1 Bile contains bile acids, which are critical for digestion and absorption of fats and fat-soluble vitamins in the small intestine. 2  Many waste products, including bilirubin, are eliminated from the body by secretion into bile and elimination in feces.

The tiny suspended particles of fat that result from this are much more accessible to enzymes necessary to digest them than the larger drops that would remain without bile salts.
