Resumen
Healthy oils are obtained catalytically by upgrading vegetable oils in a four-phase reactor and without the use of solvents. Oil glycerolysis promoted by an inexpensive and fully recoverable solid base, magnesium oxide, increases up to 54wt.% the total diglyceride content, with 67% of this fraction being the healthy 1,3-diglyceride isomer. The distinct metabolic pathway of 1,3-diglyceride is believed to prevent body fat accumulation.
