Lipid Metabolism

Description
Adipose tissue is used to remove triglycerides from chylomicrons and VLDLs. These triglycerides constitute 98% of all body energy reserves.
Lipid catabolism (lipolysis) is the process of splitting triglycerides into fatty acids and glycerol.
Lipid anabolism (lipogenesis) is the process of synthesizing lipids from glucose or amino acids. It occurs when individuals consume more calories then needed.
