Food Lipid Oxidation in Health and Disease: Relevance for Clinical Practice?

Your Price $0.00 - $54.00

Food lipid oxidation occurs during cooking and processing. Recent evidence, primarily in animal and cell culture models, suggests that consuming oxidized lipids (OL) can increase the risk of Type 2 DM, CVD and hypertension.

The content of OL in commonly consumed food is unknown, and this is a primary barrier in conducting clinical trials that are necessary to translate these observations to humans. The University of Central Missouri's laboratory is developing a mathematical tool to address this issue.

Food preparation techniques both at home and at the industrial level that minimize food lipid oxidation are known but are not being adopted currently. The goal of this webinar is to provide an overview of food lipid oxidation so that professionals can gain knowledge and move this field forward.
