What do you mean with "Omega 3 fats being incorporated in a majority of the lipid membrane?"? As in, in most tissue of the body, or in high quantities?@Hans i think its fairly unanimous, atleast on this forum, that high innflammatory diets full of AA are not optimal for health, but i wonder how you feel about Omega 3 fats being incorporated in a majority of the lipid membrane?
When you eliminate PUFAs from the diet, the body creates its own unsaturated fat that is incorporated into the cell membranes. So the body does want some degree of unsaturation and membrane fluidity. The amount of PUFAs incorporated into cell membranes are proportional to dietary PUFA intake. This doesn't mean this is what the body wants or that it's optimal.
I'm not sure if that answers your question properly. If not, could you refine your question?
