Sezvakagadzirwa nemasayendisiti, gramu imwe yemafuta kana yakagadzirwa mumuviri kune zvigadzirwa zvekupedzisira (mvura uye carbon dioxide) inopa simba zvakapetwa kaviri zvakaenzana nezviyero zvakafanana zveproteine kana mahydrohydrates. Asi zvakanyanyisa kusabvisa mafuta emiti yemiriwo nemhuka kubva pane kudya kwavo asi hazvikoshi. Ichokwadi ndechekuti kana uchinge wakadya mafuta ane mhuka yemhuka, muviri wedu unowana chinhu chakadai secholesterol. Hungu, cholesterol yakafanana, iyo yakawanda kwazvo inokanganisa mamiriro ehutano hwedu, uye pamusoro pezvose inokanganisa basa remwoyo yematambudziko. Asi usakanganwa kuti ichi cholesterol iyo imwe yezvinhu zvinokosha zvemafuta metabolism mumuviri womunhu. Pasina kubatanidzwa kwake, zvinenge zvisingakwanisi kuita chimwe chezvinhu zvakakoshesa biosynthesis mumuviri wedu. Somuenzaniso, pakushayikwa kwecholesterol, kushandiswa kwema hormone steroid hazvibviri, uye kuitika kwehutachiona hwakadaro, sezvamunoziva, hwakazara nemigumisiro yakakomba yemamiriro ezvinhu emuviri. Nokudaro, kunyange zvazvo huwandu hwemhuka dzemhuka muzvokudya huchifanira kunge husingakwanisi, hachiri kudiwa kuti uvanze zvachose kubva pakudya, kunyange nechingwa chekureruka. Chinhu chimwe chete chaunogona kuwana ndechekurega kushandisa mafuta kwenguva pfupi, somuenzaniso, panguva iyo inonzi "kubudisa zuva", apo ndiro huru patafura yedu mishonga yemiti yemichero kana pasi-calorie yactic acid products.
Kana zviri zvemafuta emichero, zvinogadzirwa nekoriori zvakafanana neyemafuta emhuka. Kusiyanisa muchitarisiko yemiriwo yemafuta kubva kumhuka nyore nyore: chokwadi ndechokuti mafuta akawanda emiriwo pane kutonhorera kwemazuva ari mumvura yakasviba, uye mafuta emhuka anobva - mune zvakasimba. Asi imwe misiyano, inonyanya kukosha kune hutano hwedu, inoratidzika mune zvakasiyana-siyana zvepanyama yemapoka ezvinhu. Icho chinopera kuti mafuta ezvinyorwa zvinomera mune zvakagadzirwa nesaturated fatty acids - linoleic, linolenic uye arachidonic, iyo inobatsira zvikuru zvinhu kuchengetedza hutano hwedu. Ichi ndicho chikonzero chekutonga kwezvokudya, maererano nemuviri wedu unofanirwa kupa huwandu hunodiwa hwemafuta, kwete chete pamutengo wemiti yemhuka yakabva, asiwo nekuda kwemiriwo mafuta-ane zvokudya. Nenzira, ikozvino muzvitoro zvezvokudya zvinomera zvinomera zviri muhupenyu hwakasiyana-siyana-izuva, maorivhi, soybean nemimwe yemafuta yemiriwo. Kuita kuti zvidikanwi zvezuva nezuva zvomuviri wedu mune izvi zvisingatauri mafuta acids, kungoita mapeji maviri emafuta emafuta, ayo atinoshandisa pakugadzirira mabiro emiriwo.
Nokudaro, kudiwa kwekuvapo kwekudya kwedu kwemafuta kwezvose zvirimwa nemhuka zvakabva pachena uye zvakagara zvichiratidzwa pane zvesayenzi. Saka kunyange nechingwa chakanyanya kuderedza kurashikirwa, haufaniri kurega zvachose mafuta-ane zvokudya kubva pane zvinyorwa zvezvokudya zvakadyiwa.
