Question
Chapter 22, Problem 22.83GP
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The major food sources of galactose in the diet has to be identified.
Concept Introduction:
Galactose is a simple sugar it founded in milk; it is one of the monosaccharide (like simple carbohydrate). It is rarely found in nature or in foods as it is commonly found linked with glucose, forming the disaccharide lactose.
Galactose pathway
- Galactose is a monosaccharide
- The lactose is sugar that is found in many foods, when the lactose is broken down in the body, glucose and galactose are produced.
- Galactose is converted into glucose in the body for energy purpose in the Leloir pathway.
