Oils and fats are almost ubiquitous in food processing –whether naturally occurring in foods or added as ingredients forfunctional benefits and, despite the impression given by severalsources to the contrary, they remain an essential part of the humandiet. However, it is increasingly apparent that both the quantityand the quality of the fat consumed are vital to achieving abalanced diet. Health concerns regarding high-fat diets continue tohave a high profile, and still represent a pressing issue for foodmanufacturers. This volume provides a concise and easy-to-use reference on thenature of oils and fats for those working in the food industry andfor those in the media seeking to advise the public on consumption.Written in a style that makes the concepts and informationcontained easily accessible, and using a minimum of chemicalstructures, the nature and composition of the constituents of oilsand fats are explained. The major sources of food lipids (vegetableand animal fats) are outlined, along with their physicalcharacteristics. The book also focuses on the current main concernsof the food industry regarding oils and fats use, including: thenutritional properties of fats and oils and their variouscomponents; links between chemical structure and physiologicalproperties; and the role of lipids in some of the more importantdisease conditions such as obesity, diabetes, coronary heartdisease and cancer. The final chapter is devoted to a descriptionof the most common food uses of oils and fats.
