  1. Fat taken in the diet is digested in the Small Intestine with the aid of Bile acids and salts which act as emulsifiers and break down the larger fat droplets into smaller ones. These are then acted upon by "lipases" which are secreted in the intestinal digestive. juices. Ultimately the fats are converted into Fatty acids and Glycerol. These are then absorbed in the form of "chylomicrons (small packages of fat and protein)" into the lymphatic channels via the lacteals and poured into the blood.

    From here chylomicrons are taken to liver and converted into cholesterol and other forms of fats which are transported to other parts of the body in the form of VLDL, LDL, IDL and HDL.

    so basically yes.

    but most of it is used as energy, or

    excreted in f***s.
