Lipolysis vs. Beta Oxidation (How Fat is Oxidized)
Beta Oxidation vs. Lipolysis
Lipolysis: Is the breakdown of a triglyceride (Splitting the glycerol backbone from the fatty acid chains)
Beta Oxidation: The Breakdown of Free Fatty Acid Chains into Acetyl CoA
These processes work together to breakdown fat from adipose or from food.
Bonus fun facts:
Lipase is an enzyme produced in the pancreas that speeds up lipolysis
The 3 carbon glycerol from lipolysis can go through a process called gluconeogenesis (making new glucose)
Acetyl CoA (2 carbon molecule) can go to the mitochondria and enter the Krebs Cycle to produce ATP

You Know what, Biology is beautiful! The problem is the teachers.Honestly, you made something so complicated easy to understand. Thank you
Glad I was able to break this down for you (pun intended lol)
To explain something complicated this simple you gotta know it very well. Excellent job.
Thank you
You've done a really good job breaking this down in such a simple way. Thank you so much, man!
It helps a lot. I was so confused between lipolysis and beta-oxidation. Thank you!
who are you and why is it that you can explain things so simply???? these videos are great and love that you can bring these complex concepts to life in simple terms. thank you thank you thank you!
Thank you so much for making this video!! I had a hard time understanding the topic based on the information I found on the internet but thankfully I stumbled upon your video. You made it so much easier to understand!
Great simple explanation
I watched this video for A&P II last semester and I’m back for more for Microbiology! So simple and straightforward! I loved it! Thank you so much!! ❤
Very simple and helpful. Thank you!
I think I learned what lipolysis and beta oxidation are, but I also feel like I'm ready for our team's next football play
Thanks! Well explained, keep up the good work.
Thank you!
Matt, I remember watching your video on your advice and how to prepare and study for the CSCS exam! Since achieving my S&C MSc I’m currently on route achieving my CSCS too! I Love seeing this kind of content man, keep it up ✌🏾
Appreciate it! Glad the videos are helping
thank you sir, simple easy to understand
simplified and accurate 👏
thank you.
Just in time, I just got this question wrong on your sample questions in your study course! Got smarter today :)
Nice! Nail down a few topics a day and you'll be ready for the exam before you know it!
Super helpful!!!
Glad to hear it👍🏼
Thank youu
What's the best way to get to lipolysis , were we have the free fatty acids so we can try to burn them
Heyy Just wanted a clarification. So after eating a burger and it's broken down in the body, the end product is a triacylglycerol right?
It could be. Or ATP
Is lypolisis the same as gluconeogenesis
No
