What does abnormal lipid metabolism mean?
Abnormal lipid metabolism refers to the impaired processing and regulation of lipids (fats) in the body, which can lead to conditions such as dyslipidemia, obesity, or fatty liver disease. This disruption may involve elevated or decreased levels of cholesterol and triglycerides, affecting overall health and increasing the risk of cardiovascular disease and metabolic disorders.
