Amino acids are found in many places, primarily your muscles. If you need energy your body will break down muscles as well as fat to create that energy. Glucose, amino acids, and fatty acids can all be converted to triglycerides. Triglycerides and amino acids can also be converted to glycogen for storage if your muscles and liver run lowâthis is the primary method that you lose fat through exercise, by your liver and muscles being replenished.
These names describe the structure of the fatty acid in terms of whether it is fully loaded with hydrogen. Fatty acids also differ in the length of the carbon chain. Short-chain fatty acids have less than eight carbons. Medium-chain fatty acids have 8 to 14 carbons and long-chain fatty acids have 16 or more carbons.nsaturated Fatty Acids: These are called unsaturated because they have lost one or more pairs of hydrogens from their carbon chain. Unsaturated fatty acids include mono-and polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs). When hydrogen pairs are removed, the fatty acid molecule develops a kink or bend, known as a double bond.
