BILE FLOW
for
Detox, Infection, Digestion
Bile flow from the liver and galballder into the gut is a crucial weak link for many people because it involves 3 root causes at once: digestion, detoxification and infection in the small intestine.
Bile flow from the liver exists through two paths: through the hepatic duct into the small intestine and through the gallbladder into the small intestine.
Bile flow through the gallbladder helps digest fat.
Bile collects toxins from the third stage of detoxification in the liver after stage 2’s major detox pathways the antioxidant systems centered on glutathione, suflation, and glucaronidation.
How do you know if you have low bile flow?
This can result in so many symptoms, like general fatigue and brain fog that have other causes, too.
Some symptoms directly related to bile flow and liver gallbladder function are:
Sensitivity to detox is an example of a paradigm problem of how to interpret symptoms. The medical or fragmented paradigm sees this as a reaction to the thing itself, the supplement or food, isolated from context of relationships to other things as a system: “I’m just sensitive to that supplement.” So you shop for another supplement. People are caught up in endless shopping looking for the right supplement “for” their “problem,” trying to match A to B in simplistic manner rather than reconceptualizing the problem.
Conceptualizing problems from a systems paradigm of environment and lifestyle looks for the weak links in the chain reaction, in this case, the flow of toxins and digestive aides moving through the liver into the bile and intestines.
If you take more things to detoxify and the bile flow does not increase then the flow of toxicity can reverse and go back into the blood. Toxins are transported out via proteins or peptides that would otherwise channel them into the canaliculli, the tubules that feed into the bile ducts. If flowing back into the blood you may experience fatigue, brain fog or inflammatory symptoms.
Dr Christopher Shade is a detox expert, in mercury in particular, who has mapped this system. He calls this reverse flow of toxicity “leaky liver.” This explains why the gut gets infected or imbalanced, dysbiotic, and thus creates “leaky gut” holes in the gut that then send toxins in the blood and back into the liver for a vicious circle.
No matter which root cause came first: infection, toxicity, or nutrition, now you have a vicious circle in which all need to be addressed.
This vicious circle should be understood in terms of toxicity because infections create toxins or endotoxins, internally produced toxins, that overwhelm the liver and slow bile flow. So to clear infection you have to detoxify to manage it’s symptoms and address underlying causes in the system or terrain of the body.
Things that assist bile flow are various bitter herbs and phosophtidyl choline from lecithin or egg yolks.
Coffee enemas also stimulate bile flow, and this is the main factor mentioned in the Gerson Clinic literature, traditional experts in coffee enemas, not just glutathione s transferease, which is just one link in the glutathione detox pathway, and still depends on phase 3 and the bile working to get it out.
Dr Chris Shade explains the science of all the above and sells products at Quicksilver Scientific that illustrate details of what goes into an entire system of detox: from phase 2 pathways, bile flow, binders of toxins in the intestines so they won’t recirculate, clearing infections, and cellular energy.
While these products are complete, it is often too complex for people to tolerate, some report. For others they work great. There is science behind everything Dr Shade does but clinical practice for the individual requires more than general science.
I prefer to energetically test one thing at a time. I begin by testing what weak links are in priority, whether it is bile, etc. I usually start with the needs of every cell in the body like possible nutritional deficiencies of magnesium, sodium and potassium that seem to have to be right before anything else can work. I like to energize before detoxifying directly so I can tolerate detox and make it work, too.

Some symptoms directly related to bile flow and liver gallbladder function are:
- Constipation: bile flow initiates peristalsis or bowel movements.
- Diarrhea
- Gas, smelly stools
- Floating and light colored poop
- Problems digesting fat.
- Gallbladder pain and problems.
- Medical diagnosis of cholestasis: low bile flow.
- SIBO because the bile is like a detergent that cleans the upper intestine. So you can kill bacteria overgrowth but it comes back because the terrain is unhealthy. The terrain is the system, the environment, it’s not just the bugs.
- Brain fog
- Insomnia: liver gallbladder irritation can create this, and this is also a diagnosis in traditional Chinese medicine.
- Sensitive to anything you do to detoxify.
