In This Episode We Discuss:

Differences between different SFA's (butyric vs. lauric vs. myristic, etc.)
Benefits of consumption of SFA-containing foods?
Effects at cellular level: ease of storage, oxidation proneness of different fatty acid types, role in cell membrane
Effect of SFA on LDL-C & LDL-P (and hence CHD risk)
Effect of SFA on blood lipids
Effect of SFA (and/or total dietary fat) on food intake: effect on satiety? palatability?
Reducing SFA: If lowering SFA intake, how much does the replacing nutrient make (MUFA vs. PUFA vs. CHO vs. PRO)
Food sources/Delivery method: Isolated SFA intake (e.g. spoonfuls of coconut oil) vs. SFA packaged alongside other nutrients/fibre and phytonutrients (e.g. some oil drizzled on a salad)
Practical Implications: Is there a best target intake range of SFA for health?
Is there an "optimal" ratio of SFA:MUFA:PUFA?
Are current nutritional guidelines for SFA intake suitable? (The American Heart Association recommends aiming for a dietary pattern that achieves 5% to 6% of calories from saturated fat.)
