Association of Ambient Air Pollution Exposure with Glycated Hemoglobin (HbA1c) Levels
Chronic exposure to fine particulate matter (PM2.5) and nitrogen dioxide (NO2) significantly elevates HbA1c levels through systemic inflammation, oxidative stress, and endothelial dysfunction, increasing type 2 diabetes risk and metabolic complications in urban populations worldwide.

Oxidized Linoleic Acid: The Hidden Driver of Modern Metabolic Crisis
Modern Western diets contain 20-30 times more linoleic acid than a century ago, primarily from processed seed oils. This dramatic shift has generated oxidized linoleic acid metabolites (OXLAMs) that trigger mitochondrial dysfunction, inflammatory cascades, and insulin resistance through distinct biochemical pathways. Unlike saturated fats that primarily activate ceramide-PKC pathways, linoleic acid promotes oxidative stress-induced metabolic…

Dyslipidemia Unmasked: A Functional Medicine Approach to Identifying and Reversing Its True Root Causes
Dyslipidemia extends far beyond cholesterol, often signaling deeper imbalances like insulin resistance, inflammation, and gut dysbiosis. Advanced biomarkers like ApoB, Lp(a), and hs-CRP uncover these root causes, enabling targeted, lifestyle-based interventions that offer more effective cardiovascular protection than traditional management alone.
