So Much To Do, So Little Time

Overall: I checked out 3 books today from the library, in hopes of understanding fatty acids. I'd like to understand what happens once they're in the mouth, like where do they go and perhaps from there, I can understand what and how it signals to the brain and how that leads to overeating high-fat foods. I started noting from Fatty Acid and Lipid Chemistry by Frank Gunstone. Alot of information is still way over my head, but I hope it'll all be connecting and making sense soon. I do know that fatty acids are long-chain acids. And oleic acid is a cis-9-octadecenoic acid. And linoleic acid has 18 carbon atoms and 2 unsaturated centres. And I know that's random, but really, all my thoughts and knowledge of this project are in jumbled fragments, and plus I have a cold, so I'm a little spaced. I stopped noting and decided to just read for the rest of the day.
