fat
\fat\ (?), n. 1. (physiol. chem.) an oily liquid or greasy substance making up the main bulk of the adipose tissue of animals, and widely distributed in the seeds of plants. see adipose tissue , under adipose.
note: animal fats are composed mainly of three distinct fats, tristearin, tripalmitin, and triolein, mixed in varying proportions. as olein is liquid at ordinary temperatures, while the other two fats are solid, it follows that the consistency or hardness of fats depends upon the relative proportion of the three individual fats. during the life of an animal, the fat is mainly in a liquid state in the fat cells, owing to the solubility of the two solid fats in the more liquid olein at the body temperature. chemically, fats are composed of fatty acid, as stearic, palmitic, oleic, etc., united with glyceryl. in butter fat, olein and palmitin predominate, mixed with another fat characteristic of butter, butyrin. in the vegetable kingdom many other fats or glycerides are to be found, as myristin from nutmegs, a glyceride of lauric acid in the fat of the bay tree, etc.

Fat
Comes from the Old English faett meaning to cram or adorn. A slang term for obese or adipose. In chemistry, fats are compounds formed from chemicals called fatty acids. These fats compose a greasy, solid material found in animal tissues and in some plants. Fats are the major component of flabby material of our bodies, commonly known as blubber.

fat
1. One of the three main nutrients in food. Foods that provide fat are butter, margarine, salad dressing, oil, nuts, meat, poultry, fish, and some dairy products. 2. Excess calories are stored as body fat, providing the body with a reserve supply of energy and other functions.

Fat
One of the three nutrients that supply calories to our bodies. Fat provides 9 calories per gram, more than twice the number provided by protein or carbohydrates. Along with providing calories, fat helps in absorption of certain vitamins. Small amounts of fat are necessary to keep our bodies functioning normally

Fat
Triglycerides (triacylglycerol) that are either solid (e.g. in margarine, shortening, lard, etc.) or liquid (e.g. vegetable or fish oil) at room temperature (see also oil).

Fat
The cheeks are puffed out and the open 'C' hands, positioned at either cheek, move away to their respective sides.

fat (lipid)
A chemical compound, or a mixture of such compounds, that is not water-soluble but dissolves in organic solvents (e.g., chloroform and gasoline). Fats include oils, phospholipids (e.g., cholesterol and vitamin D), terpenes, (e.g., beta-carotene), triglycerides, and waxes (e.g., beeswax). Triglycerides, which yield glycerol (glycerin) and fatty acids, constitute most of the fat in food and in the human body. The main types of dietary fat are saturated fats, polyunsaturated fats, and monounsaturated fats. All three types of dietary fat occur in all natural food sources of fat.

Fat
One of the nutrients that supply calories to the body. The body needs only small amounts of fat. Foods contain different types of fat. See also saturated fat.

Fat
One of the nutrients that supply calories to the body. The body needs only small amount of fat. Foods contain different types of fat, which have different effect on blood cholesterol levels. These include:
Total fat The sum of the saturated, monounsaturated, and polyunsaturated fats present in food. All foods have a varying mix of these three types.
Saturated fat A type of fat found in greatest amounts in the skin, whole-milk dairy products, lard, and in some vegetable oils, including coconut, palm kernel, and palm oils. Saturated fat raises blood cholesterol more than anything else eaten.
Unsaturated fat A type of fat that is usually liquid at refrigerator temperature. Monounsaturate fat and polyunsaturated fat are two kinds of unsaturated fat. When used in place of saturated fat, monunsaturated and polyunsaturated fats help to lower blood cholesterol levels.
Monounsaturated fat An unsaturated fat that is found in greatest amount in food from plants, including olive and canola oil.
Polyunsaturated fat An unsaturated fat found in greatest amounts in foods from plants, including safflower, sunflower, corn, and soybean oils.

Fat
(Heb. heleb) denotes the richest part of the animal, or the fattest of the flock, in the account of Abel's sacrifice (Gen. 4:4). It sometimes denotes the best of any production (Gen. 45:18; Num. 18:12; Ps. 81:16; 147:47). The fat of sacrifices was to be burned (Lev. 3:9-11; 4:8; 7:3; 8:25; Num. 18:17. Comp. Ex. 29:13-22; Lev. 3:3-5). It is used figuratively for a dull, stupid state of mind (Ps 17:10). In Joel 2:24 the word is equivalent to "vat," a vessel. The hebrew word here thus rendered is elsewhere rendered "wine-fat" and "press-fat" (Hag. 2:16; Isa. 63:2).

Fat

i.e. VAT, the word employed in the Authorized Version to translate the Hebrew term yekeb, in (Joel 2:24; 3:13) The word commonly used for yekeb is "winepress" or "winefat," and once "pressfat." (Haggai 2:16) The "vats" appear to have been excavated out of the native rock of the hills on which the vineyards lay. The Hebrews distinguished between the suet or pure fat of an animal and the fat which was intermixed with the lean. (Nehemiah 8:10) Certain restrictions were imposed upon them in reference to the former; some parts of the suet, viz., about the stomach, the entrails, the kidneys, and the tail of a sheep, which grows to an excessive size in many eastern countries, and produces a large quantity of rich fat, were forbidden to be eaten in the case of animals offered to Jehovah in sacrifice. (Leviticus 3:3,9,17; 7:3,23) The ground of the prohibition was that the fat was the richest part of the animal, and therefore belonged to him. (Leviticus 3:16) The burning of the fat of sacrifices was particularly specified in each kind of offering.
