Can the body make saturated fats when needed?
Yes, the body can synthesize saturated fats when needed through a process called lipogenesis. This occurs primarily in the liver and adipose tissue, where excess carbohydrates and proteins are converted into fatty acids, including saturated fats. While dietary intake of saturated fats is common, the body maintains the ability to produce them as necessary for various physiological functions.
What comes in saturated and unsaturated forms?
Fats, oils, and fatty acids can come in both saturated and unsaturated forms. Saturated fats have no double bonds in their molecular structure, while unsaturated fats have one or more double bonds. This structural difference affects their physical properties and implications for health.
Which are formed from fatty acids with single carbon to carbon bonds?
Saturated fatty acids are formed from carbon to carbon single bonds. These molecules are typically solid at room temperature and are commonly found in animal fats and some plant oils. Consuming too many saturated fats can increase the risk of heart disease.

Fructose, Glucose, and Sucrose you will find in honey. There are no saturated fats in honey.
Which one has higher saturated fats lard or olive oil?
Lard has more saturated fats
Are unsaturated fats better than saturated fats?
Saturated fats are more stable than unsaturated fats. This is because the C=C double bond in unsaturated fats can react with oxygen in auto-oxidation, hydrogen in auto-hydrogenation and light in photo-oxidation.
