Question 5

could you please describe how fatty acids are absorbed and transported?

Accepted Answer

Quite a process: Hi. Fats (triglycerides) are broken down in the intestines to fatty acids and monoglycerides, emulsified in bile acids, transported to gut wall, absorbed, re-esterified into triglycerides, packaged into chylomicron particles, transported in intestinal lymph to the blood, then circulate. Lipases break down the chylomicron triglycerides, and they're taken into cells. The chylo remnant goes to liver!

Question 6

ii feel like my nutrition isnt being absorbed should ii take hlc bermaine to help food digest?

Accepted Answer

G.I. doctor to check: A gastroenterologist (G.I. Or stomach specialist) can evaluate for problems if a person thinks he is not absorbing nutrients properly. There are many different types of malabsorption, so one cannot just presume that taking some acid would help. Some digestive enzymes require an acid environment, but other enzymes (the ones in the small intestine) need the acid "neutralized" in order to work.

Question 7

hi i have read that the adult daily dose for magnesiium is 420 mg however only 11 of mgcl is absorbed so takintg 1500 mg of mgcl will yield only 160 mg how can we get at least 300 mg in the body?

Accepted Answer

Try MgOx: Magnesium is available in many different forms.  Magnesium citrate is used to clean out the bowel.  Magnesium chloride is available as supplement, but the preferred form is the magnesium oxide.  This appears to be absorbed better.  Some patients with seizure disorders take up to 1500 mg mgox per day with benefit.  For those with low mg there is better absorption of any form of mg.
