What This Trial Is Studying
In humans and most mammals, bile acids play a role in the metabolism of glucose and the transport and absorption of lipids (such as cholesterol and triglycerides), vitamins, and nutrients by allowing for emulsification (mixing) and absorption of fatty molecules that are consumed. More recently, bile acids have been discovered to influence the composition and quantity of the microorganisms in the gut microbiome. Bile acids also act as signalling molecules (like hormones) in the body, regulating important metabolic pathways and digestion. While the majority of bile acids are recycled back…
