2/ After you watch the video, can you answer the following "quiz" questions?
(i) How does the contribution of de novo lipogenesis to Triglyceries in VLDL change as liver fat accumulates?

3/ T/F and why?
(ii) Palmitic acid is transported by VLDL1 to the pancreas, harming beta cells in the pancreas. Palmitic acid is a major saturated fat (16:0) found in animal foods. So, you should eat less red meat and dairy and substitue in healthy whole grains & fruit, like 🍌?

4/ BONUS QUESTIONS!! ✅✅✅
HDL went up when VLDL-TG went down.
(iii)Why does this make sense mechanistically?
(iv)What protein might be important in facilitating this change?
(v) Are there metabolically healthy populations that might exhibit a similar phenomenon?
