Considerable advances in risk prediction and lipid-based therapeutic strategies during the last three decades have had a profound impact on cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Practical Approach to Diagnosis & Management of Lipid Disorders is a useful guide designed to assis…
Lipids for functional foods and nutraceuticals
Functional foods and nutraceuticals have become 'hot topics', with an increasing number of books, college courses, and meetings devoted to this area of interest. Foods can be regarded as functional if they can be satisfactorily demonstrated to contain bio-active molecules that r…

Lipids in nutrition and health: a reappraisal
Since 80% of the global production of oils and fats is consumed as food and a further 6% is eaten by animals to produce more human food, it is not surprising that nutrition is one of the active areas in lipid science. For 10 years, Mike Gurr has written nutrition articles in lip…

As scientist begin to understand the complexity of lipid signaling and its roles in plant biology, there is an increasing interest in their analysis. Due to the low abundancy and transient nature of some of these hydrophobic compounds, this is not always easy. In Plant Lipid Sig…

"Lipids are the most abundant organic compounds found in the brain, accounting for up to 50% of its dry weight. The brain lipidome includes several thousands of distinct biochemical structures whose expression may greatly vary according to age, gender, brain region, cell type, a…
