Why Plasmalogens Matter
Plasmalogens matter because they are built into the architecture of human cells. They are specialized ether phospholipids found throughout the body, with especially high concentrations in the brain, nervous system, heart, immune cells, skeletal muscle, retina, and other tissues with high membrane demands. For decades, lipid science focused heavily on cholesterol, triglycerides, and fatty acids. […]
What Do Plasmalogens Do?
Plasmalogens help organize the cellular membrane systems that allow human cells to communicate, respond, protect themselves, and maintain structural integrity. They are specialized ether phospholipids found throughout the body, with high concentrations in the brain, nervous system, heart, immune cells, skeletal muscle, retina, and other metabolically active tissues. Their function begins with structure. Plasmalogens are […]
What Are Plasmalogens?
Plasmalogens are specialized phospholipids found in cell membranes throughout the body. They are especially concentrated in the brain, nervous system, heart, immune cells, skeletal muscle, retina, and other tissues that rely on highly organized membranes. Most people are familiar with cholesterol, triglycerides, fish oil, and omega fatty acids. Far fewer people have heard of plasmalogens, […]
