| Description |
Feeding mustard and tamarind to experimental rats produced marked increase in bile flow rate. Onion and curry powder in the diet significantly increased secretion of bile solids without affecting bile flow rate. Bile acids output was noticeably higher in animals fed either mustard, tamarind, onion or curry powder, and this was accompanied by similar increases by biliary phospholipid and cholesterol. Dietary cinnamon and asafoetida increased biliary secretion of cholesterol and phospholipid without affecting bile acid content. Intragastric single dose administration of clove or cardamom did not influence bile secretion and composition. Results suggest that there is increased hepatic conversion of cholesterol to bile acids under the influence of dietary mustard, tamarind, onion and curry powder.
