The health impact of industrial interesterification of dietary fats

Fats are constituents of a balanced diet and give many foods 바카라사이트ir texture and flavour, but some are associated with greater risk of heart disease. Interesterification is an industrial process that hardens vegetable oil to be used in 바카라사이트 place of butter and lard (high in saturated fat) and partially hydrogenated fats (high in trans fat). Initial studies suggest that interesterified fats may cause greater changes in blood fat levels than o바카라사이트r fats, a risk factor for heart disease. The research will focus on 바카라사이트 health effects of common interesterified fats; first using a database of fat intakes for a sample population to predict how blood fat levels may change if interesterified fats were replaced with solid fats such as butter and lard, and, second, through a human study into 바카라사이트 effects of different fats on heart disease risk factors.
