    Yes, olive oil is a bile agent that optimizes bile secretion and completely releases bile from the gallbladder. At the same time, it can also promote the synthesis of bile salts in the liver, and can increase the level of cholesterol secreted by the liver. Due to the beneficial effects of olive oil on muscle tone and gallbladder activity, it can also promote the digestion of fats (the fat is emulsified by bile), so it can effectively prevent the occurrence of gallstones.
