Description

Fats are the most concentrated form of food energy for the body and aid in the absorption of fat-soluble vitamins, A, D, E and K. Most fats in foods are triglycerides, made up of a unit of glycerol combined with three fatty acids that may be the same or different. Three major types of naturally occurring fatty acids are: 1) saturated, 2) monounsaturated and 3) polyunsaturated. A fourth type, trans fatty acids, are made by partial hydrogenation of polyunsaturated oils. Other dietary fats include phospholipids, phytosterols and cholesterol.
