Dietary Lipid Modulation

Meaning

Dietary Lipid Modulation is the clinical strategy of intentionally adjusting the composition of dietary fat intake, specifically targeting the ratio and type of lipids consumed, to beneficially influence systemic physiology and cellular signaling. This approach is paramount in hormonal health, focusing on optimizing the balance between omega-3 and omega-6 polyunsaturated fatty acids. The aim is to create a favorable cellular environment that supports optimal cell membrane fluidity, eicosanoid balance, and receptor function. Successful modulation is critical for managing chronic inflammation and supporting metabolic integrity.
