You can find monounsaturated fats in nuts, olive oil and avocado oil. The term “mono” comes from the single, double bond between two carbon atoms. Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids The molecular structure of polyunsaturated fatty acid (Credit: thepaleodiet.com) There are two main groups of polyunsat...
In some fatty acids, a pair of hydrogen atoms in the middle of a chain is missing, creating a gap that leaves two carbon atoms connected by a double bond rather than a single bond. Because the chain has fewer hydrogen atoms, it is said to be "unsaturated." A fatty acid with one dou...
Omega-7 palmitoleic acid is also the founding member of the class of hormones called “lipokines” ( 9)! Oleic acid helps fat burning and helps induce satiety. Palmitoleic acid (found in macadamia nuts) is a founding member of “lipokine” hormones that are good for the brain, heart, ...
A large number of animal models have been generated to study obesity and diabetes using species ranging from fruit flies to primates, including dogs, cats, pigs, rabbits, hamsters and squirrels to common rodent species, rats and mice.5,6 In general, T2DM is induced in experimental animals by...
Oleic Acid 18:1 (one double bond) CLA 18:2 (two double bonds) Milk also contains cholesterol, another controversial and dreaded word. For the most part, it's located in the cores of fat globules, and amounts to roughly 0.3% of all milk lipids. The less we get in our diets, the ...
Polymerization is explained as a process in which there is a reaction of a high quantity of monomers so as to form the desired product that are polymers. The macromolecules that are formed as a result of this process can be branched as well as linear....
High intake of Sugary Foods:High intake of sugar cause glycation to take place in the body, this is a process whereby proteins or lipid bond withsugar molecule. This leads to the formation of AGES (advanced glycation end products) which makes your fibers get stiff and they also form in an...
The discovery of a new hemoprotein from rabbit liver in 1962 is one of the key moments in biology. Today, cytochrome P450 enzymes constitute a protein superfamily superfamily found in all domains of life and have even been
As discussed, HFD-induced metabolic syndrome in rodents is plagued by many confounding factors, including, but not limited to, the type of diet (and control diet), duration of exposure to diet, animal species and strain, age and gender of the animals, and the clinical manifestations developed...
