Diacylglycerol oil, the Glossary

Index Diacylglycerol oil

Diacylglycerol oil (DAG oil) is a cooking oil in which the ratio of triglycerides, also known as Triacylglycerols (TAGs), to diacylglycerols (DAGs) is shifted to contain mostly DAG, unlike conventional cooking oils, which are rich in TAGs.[1]

Adipose tissue

Adipose tissue (also known as body fat or simply fat) is a loose connective tissue composed mostly of adipocytes.

See Diacylglycerol oil and Adipose tissue

Cooking oil

Cooking oil (also known as edible oil) is a plant or animal liquid fat used in frying, baking, and other types of cooking. Diacylglycerol oil and cooking oil are cooking oils.

See Diacylglycerol oil and Cooking oil

Digestion

Digestion is the breakdown of large insoluble food compounds into small water-soluble components so that they can be absorbed into the blood plasma.

Diglyceride

A diglyceride, or diacylglycerol (DAG), is a glyceride consisting of two fatty acid chains covalently bonded to a glycerol molecule through ester linkages.

The European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) is the agency of the European Union (EU) that provides independent scientific advice and communicates on existing and emerging risks associated with the food chain.

Fasting

Fasting is abstention from eating and sometimes drinking.

Generally recognized as safe

Generally recognized as safe (GRAS) is a United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) designation that a chemical or substance added to food is considered safe by experts under the conditions of its intended use.

Triglyceride

A triglyceride (from tri- and glyceride; also TG, triacylglycerol, TAG, or triacylglyceride) is an ester derived from glycerol and three fatty acids.

Vegetable oil

Vegetable oils, or vegetable fats, are oils extracted from seeds or from other parts of edible plants.

Vitamin

Vitamins are organic molecules (or a set of closely related molecules called vitamers) that are essential to an organism in small quantities for proper metabolic function.
