If an adult consumes a very low-fat diet that supplies only 5% of energy as fat, which of the following is the most likely immediate nutritional consequence related to fat-soluble vitamins?
Which description correctly states roles of phospholipids and cholesterol in cell membranes?
An individual consumes an extra 300 kcal/day from fat compared to their usual energy needs. Evaluate the approximate monthly weight gain attributable to that surplus, assuming 1 lb body fat ≈ 3500 kcal. Show your reasoning.

A food label lists 'partially hydrogenated soybean oil' among ingredients. Which is the most appropriate interpretation of this ingredient for cardiovascular health?

(Provide molecules and molar amount.)
A cereal bar label states per 1 bar: 210 kcal, total fat 12 g, saturated fat 4 g, but the ingredient list shows 'hydrogenated vegetable shortening' and 'partially hydrogenated oils' as early ingredients. Analyze what concerns this raises despite the labeled saturated fat being moderate.
