Abstract:

2 pp.<br>Of all the nutrients in the food supply, fat and cholesterol probably receive the most attention from health professionals and the public alike. The scientific evidence is clear that a high-fat diet relates to chronic health problems such as heart disease, some types of cancer, diabetes, and obesity. But both fat and cholesterol are natural components of the body that are vital to good health, and too little fat in your diet is just as unhealthy as too much. This article reviews dietary fats and provides guidelines for choosing foods to balance the type and amount of fat in your diet.

Introduction: Deviations from normal fetal growth are associated with abnormal neonatal fat distribution and predispose to lifetime obesity. Factors affecting fetal growth include maternal obesity.

In addition, the press time/pressure combinations of the extruded cheeses were optimized.

This work investigates the effect of fat crystal-stabilised interfaces on the transport of solutes between the two aqueous phases in W1/O/W2 emulsions. The aim is to separate solutes (NaCl or KCl) between the two aqueous phases. Fat crystals are used to stabilise the primary emulsion interface. Fat crystals are seeded at the interface during emulsion production using monoglycerides. Subsequently they sinter to form "shells" around the water droplets. It is shown that these "shells" are capable of retaining salt encapsulated within the aqueous phase despite the application of osmotic pressure g

Sudden cardiac death constitutes over a quarter of the total mortality from coronary heart disease in man. The cause of these deaths is assumed to be the cardiac rhythm disturbance, ventricular fibrillation (VF). Any intervention which might reduce VF is of major clinical importance. Diets enriched with unphysiologically large quantities of the polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA), 18:2(n-6) have been shown to reduce ventricular fibrillation in animals. However such diets also result in reciprocal changes in other nutrients. The primary aim of this thesis was to confirm the antiarrhythmic effect

Elemental feeding can induce remission in Crohn’s disease and polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) content may be the cause of a reduction in inflammation. Particular attention has focused on n-‐3 and n-‐6 PUFA content of elemental feeds. The aim of this study was to further characterize mesenteric fat in Crohn’s disease and to examine

The SNFA provides guidelines for all nutritional information but some of the guidelines have often been questioned leading to uncertainty and differing attitudes towards the consumption of fat in particular.

Abstract:

The majority of instruments designed to measure attitudes toward fatness and “obesity” were developed in the 1990s, a time when the “obesity epidemic” was gaining attention.

While there is no doubt that negative attitudes underlie stigma and discrimination, this approach assesses only part of fat discourse. Recent times have seen mainstream fat discourse expand beyond anti-fat rhetoric and incorporate perspectives of activism, acceptance, and critical responses to the anti-“obesity” agenda. To reflect this maturation

Abstract:

This thesis examines both contemporary and historical meanings surrounding human body FAT in order to illuminate, chiefly, the forces that have rendered it both an omnipresent and negative entity in Western societies. It explores the apparent contradiction that we must exist amidst hyper-consumptive capitalism yet display no bodily evidence of such consumption. Along with an investigation into alternative bodily conceptions to that of the hegemonic West, a discourse analysis is employed to challenge the key assumptions that underpin the current 'obesity epidemic' and its ensuing 'war on obes
