Pattern IV: Liver (fat assimilation) / Capillary beds ---› Cell membrane (nutrient delivery)

The liver is the primary anabolic organ. Even though it has a hand in most physiologic functions of the body, its basic strength comes from its ability to unsaturate fatty acids. Unsaturated fatty acids are a primary factor concerning cell membrane permeability and polarization. Membrane polarization plays a primary role in what is communicated between the internal and external environments of the cell; the cellular membrane is "the nervous system" of the cell. One of the primary factors influencing membrane polarization is the movement of molecules, esp. O2 and OH molecules, through the cell membrane that create electrical potentials. Fried foods and oils exposed to excessive heat cause the cell membrane to become hyper-permeable resulting in a "leaky" condition that results in a loss of cellular polarity and production of peroxide radicals. This results in poor nutrient delivery, inadequate oxygenation and the inability to detoxify on a cellular level. Other issues may include inadequate phospholipid and prostaglandin production resulting in prolonged inflammatory responses. Conditions that may be associated with ineffective lipid metabolism in include:

Aneurysms Bruising Nose bleeds Breast disease Circulatory issues (cold hands, feet, etc.) Phlebitis
