Are Amino Acids fats?Updated a year ago

Amino Acids are not fats, but they share a number of similarities. Both Amino Acids and Fatty Acids are types of building blocks of macromolecules in the body. The main difference is that Amino Acids are the building blocks of proteins, whereas Fatty Acids are bound to glycerol and form a triglyceride, which is the main constituent of fat (Lakna. 2018).
