Is Oxgall Pescatarian?
AvoidNo. Animal product not typically used in food (more typically seen in medications, supplements, cosmetics and/or cleaning supplies).
Oxgall and the Pescatarian Diet
Oxgall, or bovine bile, is a liquid substance extracted from the gallbladder of cattle. It is rich in bile acids and has been traditionally used in various applications outside of food, including as a natural detergent in cleaning products, as an ingredient in certain supplements to aid digestion, and in the preparation of some artistic materials like lithographic ink. Its use in food is rare and typically not applicable, especially for those following a pescatarian diet.
