Note
Cells can use it as fuel to generate energy and palmitic acid is a key component of cell membranes, lung secretions and some signaling molecules, which regulate cellular activities. Your cells can use palmitic acid (and other fatty acids) as fuel to generate the energy necessary to perform their biological functions.
