Fat intake is almost always related to overweight but, in fact, its consumption is essential to health. In addition to being a source of energy, fats have a fundamental role in the composition and functionality of cell membranes, they participate in the formation of hormones and other essential components of the organism and play a fundamental role in regulating the concentrations of blood lipids and their transport molecules, lipoproteins
The main sources of fat in the human diet are vegetable oils and animal fats, although they are also present in nuts, cereals and legumes.
The Grass Acid Profile of Laboratories SYNLAB lets you know what type of fats we eat through the usual diet and its effect on health. The test, based on a blood test, evaluates the four families of fatty acids – saturated, trans, monounsaturated and polyunsaturated- whose balance in consumption is essential to preserving health. In the last two decades, the modification of the lifestyle and eating habits in Western societies has caused an imbalance in the consumption of fatty acids, with an excess of saturated fats, trans and omega 6, and a defect of omega 3.
This imbalance favors cardiovascular risk and generates a context of chronic inflammation, which in turn increases the risk of sudden death, stroke, depression and neurodegenerative diseases, including cancer. Fortunately, the correction of the imbalance in fatty acid intake through the diet is a simple and effective measure to achieve an optimal state of health.
Bad fats
Several scientific studies indicate that trans fatty acids from partially hydrogenated vegetable oils increase risk factors and cardiovascular accidents. In addition, consumption of these fats has been associated with increased risk of death from coronary disease and sudden cardiac death as well as increased risk of metabolic syndrome or diabetes. This type of fat can be found mainly in baked foods such as cookies, industrial pastry, snacks, pre-cooked foods, fried products such as fries or other snacks, along with ice creams, creams and smoothies.
At present, not all types of harmful fats are reflected in the labels of the products consumed, so perhaps involuntarily they are ingesting unhealthy fats without being fully aware.
The test Food fats lets you know the types of fat that we include in the diet, a first step to be able to customize nutrition, avoiding unhealthy fats. The test analyzes the different types of fatty acids in the membrane of erythrocytes and its result is representative of fat consumption for the last three months.
The test is indicated for people of any age who want to customize their diet to optimize their health. It is also recommended for patients with inflammatory diseases, with cardiovascular disease, dyslipemias, hypertension, metabolic syndrome, etc., as well as in patients with mood, behavioral disorders or who suffer cognitive deficits.
