Lipid Metabolism Recoding

Meaning

Lipid Metabolism Recoding is the complex metabolic and genetic adaptation process that shifts the body’s primary energy substrate preference away from glucose and toward the efficient utilization of stored fats and fatty acids. This process involves altering the expression of key genes and enzymes involved in lipolysis, beta-oxidation, and mitochondrial function, effectively enhancing metabolic flexibility. Clinically, recoding lipid metabolism is a therapeutic goal for improving insulin sensitivity, reducing visceral adiposity, and supporting cardiovascular health. This deep metabolic shift promotes durable energy and systemic resilience.
