Rating (out of 5): 1

Bovine (not specified, but often referring to bovine gallbladder or related organ extracts) has been used traditionally in some forms of glandular therapy and traditional medicine practices to support the gallbladder and overall digestive health. The rationale behind its use stems from the "like supports like" philosophy, often seen in historical European and American naturopathic traditions, as well as in some traditional Chinese medicine applications. Practitioners believed that consuming extracts or desiccated forms of animal organs could support the corresponding human organ's function. However, there is a lack of robust scientific studies or clinical trials supporting the efficacy of bovine-derived products for gallbladder health. Most available evidence is anecdotal or based on historical usage rather than controlled research. No definitive biochemical mechanisms have been established, and mainstream medicine does not recognize bovine glandular supplements as an evidence-based treatment for gallbladder disorders. The current scientific consensus does not support their use, and most regulatory agencies do not approve these supplements for gallbladder support. Therefore, while there is a historical tradition of use, the scientific evidence is minimal, resulting in a low evidence rating.
