High-fat diets containing different types of fatty acids lead to distinct alterations in metabolic ...
Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), also found mainly in fish Alpha-linolenic acid (ALA) from plant sources like flaxseed, vegetable oils, and nuts Studies show that eating fish high in omega-3 fatty acids lowers your risk of cardiovascular disease. Yet taking omega-3 supplements may not have the sam...
Omega-3, -6, and -9 fatty acids are types of polyunsaturated fats. The names come from their chemical structure; the number indicates where the final double bond is in the fatty acid chain. From a health perspective, however, it is important to know that the various types...
This type of fatty acid helps tame inflammation, an important step toward recovering from an illness like COVID and staying healthy when you’re on the rebound. "Acute inflammation is responsible for the cytokine storm in COVID which makes people feel flu-like, and omega 3 fatty acids are ...
Thus, differences in phospholipid and FA composition may modulate the establishment of the gut microbiota. We investigated effects of fatty acid (FA) composition and emulsification (MPL vs SL) ingested during establishment of human gut microbiota in germ-free mice, and found that cecal microbiotas ...

Proximate compositions, amino acid compositions and fatty acid compositions of fish roe have been measured and compared. Glutamic acid, aspartic acid, lysine, and serine have been the major amino acids. However, Imperial-type caviar has also included higher amounts of tryptophan (p < 0.05). Esse...
Omega-3 fatty acids are a type of polyunsaturated fatty acid that plays a significant role in our health. Several different types of Omega-3 fatty acids exist. Still, the majority of health research focuses on three: alpha-linolenic acid (ALA), eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), and docosahexaenoic...
Hydrolytic rancidity generally causes an unpleasant odor. This is due to the release of free fatty acids from glycerides. Chemical equation for hydrolysis of fatty acid Triglycerides are a combination of three fatty acids that are generally present in oil foods. When they react with water, they ...
