    (A) Oleoylethanolamide (OEA) is generated from dietary triglycerides and regulates satiety and lipid metabolism. (B) Insulin normally suppresses hepatic glucose production and increases glucose uptake by muscle and fat. Long-chain fatty acyl coenzyme A (LCFACoA) is generated from dietary fatty acids in the upper intestine and stimulates hepatic glucose production.
