Physiological Homeostasis Lipids

Meaning

Physiological Homeostasis Lipids refers to the specific lipid molecules, including cholesterol, triglycerides, and various fatty acids, that are actively involved in maintaining the body’s internal, stable equilibrium. Beyond their role as energy stores and structural components, these lipids serve as precursors for vital signaling molecules, such as steroid hormones and eicosanoids, which regulate inflammation, metabolism, and endocrine function. Maintaining the correct balance and availability of these lipids is indispensable for overall health and systemic regulatory capacity.
