Bile is produced by the liver and stored in the gallbladder. It helps in the digestion and absorption of fats by breaking them down into smaller lipid droplets called micelles. Therefore, if a person does not produce bile, they would have the most difficulty digesting fats. Carbohydrates and proteins would still be broken down by enzymes in the mouth, stomach and small intestine without bile. Nucleic acids are not broken down by bile but by enzymes instead.
