Fat Flashcards
main classes of fat?
phosphalipid -soluble in fat and water
in cell membrance
triglycerides -largest
cholesterol-small%
A long chain of fatty acids is more?
liquid and soluble
one glycerol combined 3 fatty acids form what?
triglyceride
where can find palm oil棕櫚油?
餅乾、巧克力、冰淇淋、泡麵
起酥油(shortening)、人造奶油(margarine)
Canola oil芥花籽油
含豐富的奧米加3脂肪酸(omega-3 fatty acid),有利心臟和血管的健康
cell too fat relative with insulin?
lower insulin sensitive
What is the difference between saturated and unsaturated fat?
Which is good?why
saturated fat - solid in room Temp
unsaturated fat - liquid in room temp
Unsaturated fats can improve blood cholesterol levels: up HDL down LDL
Triglycerides ( TG ) function ? x 4
1 energy storage
2 insolation日射量 and protect the skin layer
3 hormone synthesizes
4 absorption of fat and vitamin
what is the difference between trans 反式 and cis 順式 fatty acids? are they unsaturated fat?
which is bad and why?
Both are unsaturated fat
trans fatty acids similar to the saturated fat straight
chemical structure of trans fats - straight sharp
chemical structure of cis fats - V sharp
trans fatty acid is difficult for the body to metabolize. Since they can increase LDL, this can lead to heart disease, diabetes, and cardiovascular diseases.
what is EFA? Can the body synthesize?
which?
essential fatty acids
The body cannot synthesize and must take in diet
omega 6 = linoleic acid
omega 3 = alpha-linoleic acid (ALA)
what is different between omega 3,6,9?
food sources?
RNI intake ratio?
essential fatty acids
The body cannot synthesize and must take in a diet
polyunsaturated fat
omega 6 = linoleic acid - plant oil,nuts
omega 3 = alpha-linoleic acid (ALA) / EPA / DHA
fish oil
monounsaturated fats are nonessential fats
omega 9 - plant oil and nuts
The body can produce
intake ratio: 1:1:3
what is omega 3?
function? x 3
food sources?
essential fatty acids
The body cannot synthesize and must take in a diet
polyunsaturated fat
omega 3 = alpha-linoleic acid (ALA) / EPA lower cancer/ DHA good for brain
ALA can change to EPA and DHA
food: salmon/ chia seeds奇亞籽/ walnuts/ flaxseeds亚麻籽/mackerel鯖魚/ sardines沙丁魚
Function:
Help cardiovascular function
reducing inflammation
anticoagulation
where is phospholipids synthesize?
combine with?
Function?
Where are phospholipids found in the body?
Food?
synthesize in liver
40%protein 50% fat combined
function:
emulsifier water and oil mixed
transport and soluble of lipid 有「人體清道夫」之稱 keep bile in liquid
to protect the cell against various environmental
where:
the major components of cell membranes.
Food:
egg yolks = lecithin 卵磷脂
liver/soybeans/peanuts
EX: phospholipids functions? x 4
lipid transport
break fats for digestion
from bile
in blood coat the surface of lipoprotein that carry lipid
Ex: cholesterol %from?
in diet is it = fat?
Function?x5
RNI?
30% from food 70% from liver and small intestine
It is not fat eg: liver is high cholesterol but low fat
RNI: 300 mg/day
Function:
1 synthesize Vit D by liver and small intestine
2 hormones product
3 components of the brain and nervous system
4 structural functions in cell membranes
precursor 前驅 molecule
5 parts of bile juice digest fat
