We know that the stomach digests food when eating. Can the bile in the gallbladder help digestion?

    When there is no food to stimulate the digestive tract, the bile in the gallbladder slowly flows through the bile duct into the small intestine while condensing; and after eating for 3-5 minutes, the small intestine will produce choline to promote the contraction and emptying of the gallbladder. The bile is squeezed into the intestine to help digest fat in food.
