This chapter explores the role of the gallbladder in releasing bile into the duodenum, focusing on conditions that can lead to abdominal pain post-meals indicating gallbladder issues. It also details how bile aids in emulsifying fats for digestion and the coordinated release of bile and pancreatic juices in the duodenum. Additionally, it touches on pain receptors, CCK release triggers, and the complexities of pancreas function in the digestive process.
Where do proteins, fats, and carbohydrates get broken down and absorbed? What does the liver, gall bladder, and pancreas do? Do we need an appendix? And much more!
