Abstract :
Triglycerides are one of the fat fractions in the blood that are formed in the
liver from glycerol and fat derived from food with insulin stimulation or from
excess calories due to excessive food. Excessive alcohol consumption increases
the risk of liver cirrhosis, coronary heart disease, metabolic disorders and
stroke. The end product of this reaction is acetate and is further metabolized to
form acetyl CoA. The combination of NADH and acetyl CoA supports fatty
acid synthesis and triglyceride storage and accumulation. So this study aims to
