Lipid Peroxidation Control

Meaning

Lipid Peroxidation Control is the critical biochemical process of regulating and actively mitigating the oxidative degradation of vulnerable lipids, particularly the polyunsaturated fatty acids embedded within cellular membranes, by highly reactive oxygen species (ROS). Uncontrolled lipid peroxidation generates toxic, reactive byproducts, such as malondialdehyde, that severely compromise cell membrane integrity and significantly contribute to accelerated cellular aging and chronic degenerative disease. Effective control is a cornerstone of the body’s endogenous antioxidant defense system and is essential for cellular longevity.
