2. Complex Lipids
- Triglycerides
- Phospholipids
- Waxes
Good and Bad Cholesterol
LIPIDS
are biomolecules that are either produced by the
human body or obtained from diet.
they are derived from dairy and poultry products,
grains, meats, and oils.
they contain more carbon and hydrogen atoms than
oxygen atoms.
they are insoluble in polar solvent such as water, but
they are soluble in nonpolar solvent.
FATTY ACIDS
are carboxylic acid consisting
of a hydrocarbon chain.
it consist of a long,
hydrophobic, non-polar
hydrocarbon “ TAIL “ and
hydrophilic, polar carboxylic
acid functional group at the “
HEAD “.
it may be saturated or
unsaturated.
FATTY ACIDS
SATURATED FATTY ACIDS have
no carbon-carbon double bonds, and
have higher melting points than
unsaturated fatty acids.
UNSATURATED FATTY ACIDS
contains one or more double bonds
in hydrocarbon chain.
TRANS FATS
also called as Trans-fatty Acids.
are formed through an industrial process called
HYDROGENERATION
HYDROGENERATION
is a chemical reaction between a hydrogen molecule and
another compound; which makes the oil more solid.
complete hydrogeneration involves the addition of hydrogen
to convert the unsaturated fatty acids into a complete saturated
fatty acids
when partial hydrogeneration occurs, the double bond
remains but the hydrogen atoms attach to the molecules
configuration: cis and trans
TRANS FATS
the configuration of the atoms
influence the shape of the
fatty acids.
TRANS FATS can be found
in many food products, and
are sometimes used to help
give the products a longer
shelf life, stability and better
texture.
CLASSIFICATION OF LIPIDS
1. SIMPLE LIPIDS: STEROIDS
2. COMPLEX LIPIDS
- Triglycerides
- Phospholipids
CLASSIFICATION OF LIPIDS
SIMPLE LIPIDS:
STEROIDS
have a backbone structure of
four fused carbon rings
The best example of this is the
CHOLESTEROL.
CLASSIFICATION OF
LIPIDS
COMPLEX LIPIDS
TRIGLYCERIDES or TRIACYGLCEROLS
• are the most abundant type of lipid found in plants and animals,
serving as energy storage forms.
• are fats that circulates in your blood.
ESTERIFICATION
- is a reaction where an alcohol and an acid react to form an ester,
which is converted into water as a reaction product.
• we have solid and liquid triglycerides
• Solid triglycerides are usually found in animals called fats while the
liquid triglycerides are found in plants called oils.
CLASSIFICATION OF LIPIDS
COMPLEX LIPIDS
PHOSPHOLIPIDS
• made up glycerol, phosphate, a simple organic molecule and
two fatty acids
• building block of cellular membranes
• it has two distinct parts:
Hydrophilic Phosphate Head
- it will dissolve in water
Hydrophilic Phosphate Tail
- It repels water
CLASSIFICATION OF
LIPIDS
COMPLEX LIPIDS
EXAMPLES OF PHOSPHOLIPIDS
Lecithin
-use as an emulsifying agent
-can be obtained from egg, yolks, nuts, whole grains, and soybeans.
Cephalin
-particularly in nervous tissues and blood platelets.
CLASSIFICATION OF
LIPIDS
COMPLEX LIPID
WAXES
• are water insoluble, low melting solids that consists of a long-chain
fatty acid and a long chain monohydroxy alcohol.
• natural waxes are often mixture of esters of fatty acids and may
contain hydrocarbons.
• the presence of nonpolar hydrocarbon chain makes waxes insoluble
in water.
GOOD AND BAD
CHOLESTEROL
LIPOPROTEINS
-are cholesterol, carrying particles composed of proteins and lipids
that travel through the bloodstream.
-they become denser as the protein-to-lipids ratio increases.
-There are two types of LIPOPROTEINS.
1. HIGH-DENSITY LIPOPROTEINS
2. LOW-DENSITY LIPOPROTEINS
GOOD AND BAD
CHOLESTEROL
LIPOPROTEINS
HIGH-DENSITY LIPOPROTEINS ( HDL’s )
- are referred ta as “good” cholesterol because they
transport excess cholesterol from the body tissues to the
liver where it is converted into bile acids used for
digestion.
- HDL’s contain approximately 55% proteins and 45%
lipids.
GOOD AND BAD
CHOLESTEROL
LIPOPROTEINS
LOW-DENSITY LIPOPROTEINS ( LDL’s )
- are considered as “bad“ cholesterol because they
transport cholesterol away from the liver and throughout
the body.
- this cholesterol tends to accumulate and clog arteries,
causing hearts problems.
- LDL’s are made up of about 20% to 22% proteins and
78% to 80% lipids.
TIPS TO LOWER LDL
CHOLESTEROL
Avoid fatty foods
Eat a healthy diet
Move your body daily
Don’t smoke
Take prescription medicines
Reduce stress
