About Fats & Oils

Fats and oils are made up of basic units called fatty acids. All fats and oils are a mixture of saturated fatty acids and unsaturated fatty acids. Unsaturated fatty acids include monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats. Fats and oils are categorized according to the number and bonding of the carbon atoms in the aliphatic chain. Fats that are saturated fats have no double bonds between the carbons in the chain. Unsaturated fats have one or more double bonded carbons in the chain. Within these categories, some specific fatty acids promote good health while others do not. Learn more about fats and oils...
