Lipid Replacement

Lipids are a major component of our body’s cell membranes, and in CIRS they become damaged and oxidized, causing a cascading negative effect on energy production, nutrient absorption, and general function. Lipid replacement therapy can help reverse this and lead to faster recovery and improvement of symptoms. Supplementing healthy fats/oils/lipids can also be beneficial to overall health even in people who do not have chronic illness.

We have found the following products to be beneficial for lipid replacement:

• BodyBio PC (liposomal phospholipid complex): Purchase from BodyBio Site

• BodyBio Balance Oil: Purchase from BodyBio Site

• Daily consumption of extra-virgin olive oil
