The Role of Eicosanoids in Inflammation

Eicosanoids are lipid signaling molecules that play a significant role in inflammation, pain, and other bodily functions. They are produced from fats consumed in the diet, particularly from polyunsaturated fatty acids found in seed oils and certain meats. The imbalance created by these oxidized fatty acids can lead to an increase in inflammatory markers like leukotrienes and prostaglandins, which further propagate inflammation and associated diseases. Understanding the types of fats that contribute to eicosanoid production can help individuals manage inflammation by modifying their dietary choices.
