So, the core of triglyceride gets surrounded by a monolayer of a phospholipid, cholesterol, and apoproteins, to make it water soluble to travel in your blood stream.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px; color: #000000;\">Chylomicrons do not enter the portal system but go to the lymphatic system, thoracic duct. Then it enters the jugular vein and the main systemic circulation.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px; color: #000000;\">It is the long chain triglycerides as chylomicrons travel through the lacteal system in your gut into the thoracic duct which communicates with the left subclavian vein.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px; color: #000000;\">Foods that have long chain fatty acids are oily fish. These are polyunsaturated fatty acids, friendly to heart health.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px; color: #000000;\">They are animal derived foods such as lard, bacon, dairy, beef, eggs etc.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px; color: #000000;\">Small chain and medium chain triglycerides do not form chylomicrons, but directly transported to the liver through the portal vein without packaging into lipoprotein particles in the chylomicron balls.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px; color: #000000;\">Small chain fatty acids are found in types of cheeses, butter, and cow\u2019s milk.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px; color: #000000;\">High-fiber foods, such as fruits, veggies, legumes, and whole grains, encourage the production of short-chain fatty acids.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px; color: #000000;\">Coconut oil is a good example of medium chain fatty acids containing 6-12 carbon atoms. Small amounts are found in cheese, butter, and milk.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px; color: #000000;\">The liver then sends triglycerides to the muscle cells for energy or the adipose fat cell for storage.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px; color: #000000;\">Most unsaturated fats are found in plant-based foods and oils. Plant-based diets include whole grains, fruits, vegetables, nuts, seeds, tubers, and legumes as staples.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px; color: #000000;\">Evidence show that eating foods rich in polyunsaturated fatty acids instead of saturated fatty acids improves blood cholesterol levels, which can decrease your risk of heart disease and diabetes type 2.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px; color: #000000;\">Fats are composed of fatty acids with an organic acid group (-COOH) at one end.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px; color: #000000;\">Because of this -COOH group, an acid molecule attached to the carbon chain -it is called a fatty acid.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px; color: #000000;\">Fatty acids are chains consisting of a long series of carbon atoms joined to each other and each carbon atom joined to two hydrogen atoms.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px; color: #000000;\">If all the carbon atoms in a fatty acid chain are filled with hydrogen atoms on each side of the carbon atom, we call that a saturated fat.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px; color: #000000;\">It is like getting into the train and you find all the seats are filled then we say the train compartment is saturated with people. Each seat refers to a carbon atom, and the hydrogen atom refers to the commuters.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px; color: #000000;\">In unsaturated fatty acid chains, there are carbon atoms without hydrogen atom bondage. If a pair of hydrogen atoms are missing, we call it a monounsaturated fat.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px; color: #000000;\">Or if we compare with the train compartment, only one seat is available for a commuter.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px; color: #000000;\">In polyunsaturated fatty acids there are many carbon atoms without hydrogen atom bondage- so compared that to the train compartment means, that when you look around there are many vacant seats.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px; color: #000000;\">Hope that is truly clear now.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px; color: #000000;\"><strong>How does one become overweight and lead to obesity?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px; color: #000000;\">Just over-eating dietary fats including carbs one could store the excess as triglycerides, in your fat cells distributed in most areas of the body, after being used for your daily energy requirement.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px; color: #000000;\">Fat is also a convenient way to store a lot of energy in a small space. The energy we get from fat-usually around nine calories per gram-comes from the way that our bodies breakdown the bonds that hold the chains of hydrocarbons together. The fat around our tummies, thighs and buttocks is often a healthy reserve of energy.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px; color: #000000;\">You are born with a certain number of fat cells. In your childhood you tend to grow more fat cells. About mid-20s we seem to stop multiplication of these fat cells and tend to get bigger on overeating.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px; color: #000000;\">A normal person has between 25 and 35 billion fat cells, but this number can increase in times of excessive weight gain, to as many as 100 to 150 billion cells.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px; color: #000000;\"><strong>Some people just have more fat cells.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px; color: #000000;\">Let us discuss the science behind what makes us put on weight.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px; color: #000000;\">Just eating too much of fat and carbs are not the only reasons why you put on weight.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px; color: #000000;\">It really is genetic<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px; color: #000000;\">Scientists discovered the gene in certain chubby mice, and they called it the fatso gene.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px; color: #000000;\">It is observed that people with two copies of this fatso gene, now referred to as FTO gene showed up in type 2 diabetes as two copies of the gene and they were more likely to be obese than those without the FTO gene.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px; color: #000000;\">Scientists now suspect that there are lots of fat genes. \u201cThere could be as many as 100,\u201d says Dr Claude Bouchard, executive director of the Pennington Biomedical Research Center. \u201cEach add a couple of pounds here and a pound or two there. That\u2019s a noticeable difference when it comes to how much more fat we need to burn off.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px; color: #000000;\">Those who carry FTO genes are more likely to be obese.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px; color: #000000;\">It is also observed that by improving your diet and being more physically active will help you lose weight, regardless of your genetic makeup, and that seems to be good news.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px; color: #000000;\">But even if you lose a few kilograms your fat cell count remains same and you need to remain on a restrictive low-calorie diet if you wish to remain slim.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px; color: #000000;\">What is the significance of triglycerides in your body?<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px; color: #000000;\">They are measured in milligrams per deciliter of blood. Normal adult\/desirable triglyceride range: less than 150mg\/dL. Borderline high triglyceride range: 150 to 199 mg\/dL.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px; color: #000000;\">Causes of high triglycerides in your body are:<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px; color: #000000;\">Eating too much unhealthy foods like starchy veggies, Baked beans with sugar or pork added, sugary drinks and too much of good things<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px; color: #000000;\">Genetics, Certain illnesses including poorly controlled diabetes, kidney disease and underactive thyroid.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px; color: #000000;\">Some drugs, such as steroids and birth control pills and drinking a lot of alcohol can also cause it.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px; color: #000000;\">Like high blood cholesterol levels, high triglycerides do not have symptoms.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px; color: #000000;\">High triglycerides contribute to hardening of the arteries, which increases the risk of stroke, heart attack and heart disease.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px; color: #000000;\">Extreme high triglycerides can also cause acuter inflammation of the pancreas called pancreatitis.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px; color: #000000;\">When the triglycerides are high -over 500 mg per dL (5.65mmol per L you may have to take medication such as statins, fibrates, niacin, and fish oil.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px; color: #000000;\">You should also focus on vegetable-based diets, fruits that are lower in fructose such as grapefruit, strawberries, bananas, peaches, and high-fiber whole grains<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px; color: #000000;\">Hope this video was useful.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-size: 20px; color: #000000;\">Stay well and Goodbye for now.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\"><em>Disclaimer:<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\"><em>The information contained in this article is for general information purposes only, and whilst the author will endeavour to keep the information up to date and correct, eLanka makes no representations or warranties of any kind, express or implied, about the completeness, accuracy, reliability, suitability or availability with respect to the eLanka website or the information, products, services, or related graphics contained in this article for any purpose.
