What happens to the function of lipase if bile salt production is reduced?
Pinker1989
Lipase cannot function properly upon the substance it is attempting to digest without the help of bile which breaks down that substance. (in digestion the "substance" is any fats or lipids) This all occurs after leaving the stomach and entering the small intestine.
