Thank you for saving my life!! You should mention the use of micelles to transport MG's and FFA's through the 'unstirred water layer' to the brush border where they exit the micelle and are then absorbed Amazing videos!
what are u specialised in?,,coz i observed you teach a wide range of stuf from organic chem to indepth biochem....such an inspiration,,am now an A student thanx to u sir...
That's almost certainly because your insulin is constantly high. Fatty acid lipase (insulin sensitive lipase) is inhibited by insulin. Likewise glucagon (your fat "burn" hormone) is always depressed in a high insulin (or low protein) state. In nature you should not be both caloric restricted and in a high insulin state, hence this should not be a problem. On the other hand, if you become insulin resistant it can be very hard for you to achieve a low insulin state. If you really want to fix this you either need to begin intermittent fasting or a ketogenic diet. Either process can be difficult but both are just like exercise in that they get easier the more you use them. I lost 55 lbs and only 3 lbs of that was muscle (Tanita body fat scale). You can train your body to access fat.
Thanks! Can you please explain when the body utilizes more FFA originated from adipose tissue (transported by albumin) and when - triglycerides originated in liver transported by VLDL? Thank you!
AK I do have a question on Triglycerides perhaps you can shed some light on. Can the fatty acid chains on the TG be Omega 3 fatty acids? If so can we then say that when we measure TG levels there are some TG that are actually healthy TG because they are composed of the Omega 3 fatty acids that are supposed to be of some health benefit. Or all TG harmful above a certain level "150" regardless of the fatty acid chain make up.
AK Can you comment on any difference on Medium chain fatty acids and other fatty acids metabolism. It appears there is growing consensus that coconut oil is actually healthier because its a medium chain fatty acids, however they never demonstrate why at least from a biochemistry perspective. More or less a "trust me on this one" statement saturating the web.
+Dru Dru There is no current research that I know of that states that coconut oil is good. In fact, I was at a lecture recently that was led by an MD, PHD who clearly stated to avoid coconut oil. This is especially true for kids.
Usually the carboxylic acid group exist as coo group then how actually esterification happens with oh forming the three fatty acids in triglycerides ... Pls any one..
