Recent studies suggest that saturated fat is not inherently bad and can be incorporated in moderation into a healthy, balanced diet.
Saturated Fat:• Function: tends to increase blood cholesterol levels. • Sources: found mostly in meat and dairy products, as well as some vegetable oils, such as coconut and palm oils (tropical oils). Butter is high in saturated fat, while margarine tends to have more unsaturated fat...
Increasing intakes of unsaturated fat sources, however, seems to have the opposite effect, and may benefit heart health (7). To decrease intakes of saturated fats, consider swapping higher fat animal proteins for leaner choices, or opting for a more plant-forward diet, including beans and ...
Related to saturated fat:polyunsaturated fat,unsaturated fat fat 1.any of a class of naturally occurring soft greasy solids that are esters of glycerol and certain fatty acids. They are present in some plants and in the adipose tissue of animals, forming a reserve energy source, and are used...
A high intake of saturated fat and of trans isomers of unsaturated fat is associated with increased risk of cardiovascular disease. Recently, we found that replacement of saturated fat by trans fat in a dietary controlled study with 32 men and women decreased serum high-density lipoprotein (HDL)...
Saturated fat is one of two broad groups of fats in our food. It is mainly found in animal products such as meat, milk and dairy foods, and eggs, and is usually solid at room temperature. Unsaturated fats are usually liquid and are found in plant product
Fat or lipidis an important macromolecule which contains a central glycerol molecule and three fatty acid chains linked together. There are two types of fats based on the bonds between the molecules of fatty acid chains; they are saturated fats and unsaturated fats. ...
How can you distinguish between a saturated fat and an unsaturated fat at the molecular level? What is the importance of fats to the health of a human being and what are some food sources of fats? Why is saturated fat unhealthy?
