What is bile?

The liver of most vertebrates produces bile, also known as gall, which is a dark-green to the yellowish-brown fluid that aids in the small intestine's breakdown of lipids. Bile is continuously created by the liver in humans (liver bile), and it is stored and concentrated in the gallbladder. Hepatic bile is made up of 200 meq/l inorganic salts, 0.7% bile salts, 0.2% bilirubin, 0.5% lipids (cholesterol, fatty acids, and lecithin), and 97-98% water. Biliverdin, a green oxidized version of bilirubin, is one of the two primary pigments in bile. They combine to give feces their specific brown hue color. Adult humans produce about 400 to 800 milliliters of bile every day.
