Research Progress on Safety,Metabolism,Weight Loss and Lipid-lowering Function of Diglycerides
Triacylglycerol(TAG),as the main component of edible oil,is the energy substance with the largest storage and largest capacity in the body.Because TAG is easily converted into storage fat after digestion and metabolism,excessive TAG is easy to induce cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.Diacylglycerol(DAG)is a structural lipid formed by replacing a fatty acid of TAG with a hydroxyl group under the catalysis of lipase by using ordinary vegetable oil as raw material and lipase preparation,water and glycerol as the main auxiliary materials.A large number of studies have found that daily dietary intake of DAG can reduce visceral fat accumulation,inhibit weight gain,and reduce hyperlipidemia.This review introduces the metabolic pathways and safety of DAG,as well as the mechanism and function of DAG in weight loss and lipid lowering,which provides a theoretical basis for DAG as medical nutrition and health products.
