lauric acid and Obesity

lauric acid has been researched along with Obesity in 3 studies

dodecanoic acid : A straight-chain, twelve-carbon medium-chain saturated fatty acid with strong bactericidal properties; the main fatty acid in coconut oil and palm kernel oil.

Obesity: A status with BODY WEIGHT that is grossly above the recommended standards, usually due to accumulation of excess FATS in the body. The standards may vary with age, sex, genetic or cultural background. In the BODY MASS INDEX, a BMI greater than 30.0 kg/m2 is considered obese, and a BMI greater than 40.0 kg/m2 is considered morbidly obese (MORBID OBESITY).

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"The aim of the paper is to investigate whether changes in the metabolome could explain observed changes in body composition in overweight adults after consumption of butter with high level of medium-chain fatty acids (MCFAs) in combination with casein or whey."2.84Consumption of Whey in Combination with Dairy Medium-Chain Fatty Acids (MCFAs) may Reduce Lipid Storage due to Urinary Loss of Tricarboxylic Acid Cycle Intermediates and Increased Rates of MCFAs Oxidation. ( Amer, B; Bertram, HC; Bohl, M; Clausen, MR; Dalsgaard, TK; Gregersen, S; Hermansen, K; Larsen, MK; Nebel, C; Skov, T; Zheng, H, 2017)
"Fatty liver is closely associated with obesity and sensitizes the liver to further insults."1.40Lipidomic analysis of the liver from high-fat diet induced obese mice identifies changes in multiple lipid classes. ( Aslanidis, C; Buechler, C; Eisinger, K; Hebel, T; Krautbauer, S; Liebisch, G; Schmitz, G, 2014)
