Lipid and the Vegetarian Diet

Lipids are a diverse group of compounds that are insoluble in water but soluble in organic solvents. They include fats, oils, waxes, certain vitamins, hormones, and most non-protein membrane components. Lipids serve several essential functions in living organisms, including energy storage, structural components of cell membranes, and signaling molecules. In foods, they contribute to texture, flavor, and satiety.
