Fatty acids

Fatty acids are compounds made of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen. Depending on the length of the carbon chain, we distinguish short-chain, medium-chain and long-chain fatty acids.

What do you know about medium chain fatty acids?

Medium chain fatty acids [ang. medium-chain triglycerides (MCT)] are classified as being easily digestible . They differ from the long-chain ones in terms of digestion, absorption, and metabolism. They have a lower molecular weight, are absorbed directly into the portal circulation , quickly absorbed by hepatocytes and oxidized in the mitochondria. Unlike most other lipid molecules that require a complex process of digestion, MCTs are more easily absorbed into the bloodstream from the gastrointestinal tract . Medium chain fatty acids are more oxidized than deposited as adipose tissue; show the effect of increasing energy expenditure - they oxidize quickly in the target obtaining energy . They also provide fewer calories than long chain fatty acids.
