What is the difference between saturated and unsaturated lipids in terms of their chemical structure and impact on health?

Saturated lipids have all single bonds between carbon atoms, while unsaturated lipids have at least one double bond. Saturated lipids are solid at room temperature and can raise cholesterol levels, increasing the risk of heart disease. Unsaturated lipids are usually liquid at room temperature and can help lower cholesterol levels, reducing the risk of heart disease.
