Q

How do bile salts make a fat globule soluble?

A

Combines with water to turn into phospholipids and a triglyceride or a fat droplet

17
Q

What is the breakdown of fat by lipase?

A
  • A fat droplet and triglyceride and phospholipid combine with lipase to create a monoglyceride and fatty acids
  • The monoglyceride and fatty acids go through brush border
18
Q

Does chylomicrons (fat) go straight through the bloodstream?

A

No, it is absorbed by the lymphatic system first as it is too large

19
Q

What are triglycerides packaged as?

A

Chylomicrons

20
Q

What are chylomicrons?

A

A type of lipoprotein that transports cholesterol to different tissues

21
Q

What do chylomicrons prevent?

A

They prevent atherosclerosis by delivering more cholesterol rich particles to the artery wall

21
Q

How do chylomicrons re-enter circulation?

A

Via thoracic duct near the heart

22
Q

What comes in from the ileum?

A

Ileal chyme (a chemical and particle-rich liquid, i.e, broken down food particles)

23
Q

What are examples of substances that come in from the Ileum?

A
  • Unabsorbed Nutrients
  • Hormones and Chemical Messengers
  • Soluble Fibre (probiotics)
  • Insoluble Fibre
  • Microbes (probiotics)
  • Cellular Debris
  • Excretion products from the liver
24
Q

What does the colon play a large role in?

A

Hydration

25
Q

1st stage of what happens in the large intestine

A

The colonic epithelium absorbs water and simple ions like sodium, potassium, magnesium and calcium

26
Q

2nd stage of what happens in the large intestine

A

The resident microbes digest and absorb what chemicals they can (prebiotics) in a process called fermentation, which produces short chains of fatty acids

27
Q

3rd stage of what happens in the large intestine

A

The resident microbes produce some vitamins (Vitamin K, Vitamin B) as a by product of their metabolism.

28
Q

4th stage of what happens in the large intestine

A

The resident microbes produce gases during their digestion and consumption of the Ileal chyme (carbon, methane, hydrogen sulphide)

29
Q

5th stage of what happens in the large intestine

A

Newly arriving live microbes (probiotic or other) seek to get a foothold in the microbial ecosystem and multiply

30
Q

What is hedonic hunger?

A

The drive to eat to obtain pleasure even though, you are not hungry

31
Q

What is homeostatic hunger?

A

Increased motivation to eat due to depletion of energy stores (hungry as you have not ate in awhile)
