@@LeonardoSantana77 just stay on a lower carb diet, period and carb cycle. Intermittent fasting and yes apple cider vinegar is key. Also black tea(unsweetened) Teas are key. Watch starches. My triglycerides were at 490. My cholesterol was 300. Now the last time my triglycerides were checked at 66. My sugar was 77( I was on a 16 hour fast with apple cider vinegar) my normal is around 100 to 105. I hope this helps. But keep up with your doctor always. Always consult the doctor as well.

@@rickyspanke7215 hey man, I can't tell you how much this helps. I feel like I'm a walking heart attack now just waiting to happen. I feel a lot better. This was a good wake up call. Glad I can do something about it.
When I went low carb first then dropped into keto, my triglycerides were high before I went low carb, because I had a doctor that wanted me on whole wheat products, so I listened. Wish i wouldn't have. Went to have my blood drawn, omg my triglycerides were near 300(normal is 100 or below). So after being diagnosed with N.A.F.L.D(non alcoholic fatty liver disease) I was researching how to cure this. Stumbled upon Thomas and Dr.Berg. As soon as I went on low carb/keto all my numbers including cholesterol and liver enzymes went to normal. The last blood draw I had done my triglycerides were 65, sugar was at 70 and L.d.l was lower and my good cholesterol went up, I forgot those numbers. My new dr. Freaked and is like what are you doing? I told him he said keep it up, I also included way more veggies and took most dairy out or my diet. Plus apple cider vinegar drinks, with turmeric and ginger. This worked for me along with moderate exercise. I hope this helps people☮

Very interesting video to understand triglycerides. I've been on keto now for about 6 months. I lost 14kg, but far more important to me were my blood test results. My cholesterol was at over 300 before I started keto with a disastrous balance between HDL and LDL. My triglycerides used to be at a dangerous level of 770mg/dL!!!

I said "screw that", I told him I follow Thomas and Dr Berg and Thomas DeLaur. She said to stay away from TH-cam lol. Big pharma doesn't like keto
Thank you! I have been searching for this. My Triglycerides are over 400. I’ve been doing keto / low carb . They more than doubled and then are back up to 350! I will try all of these things . Thanks
I was 300 pounds, I fast and ate salmon, vegetables and apple cider for 4 months. I took omega 3 I went from 1600 to 103 . I spent 2 hours at the gym playing basketball and using the sauna .
You videos this week have been an anchor for me, feels so good to wake up to these!! I’m transforming bit by bit each day, this content helps tremendously!
After 8 months KETO losing #40 my LDL went up to 20 points over average ~ went back 3 months later for a recheck..up over 215. Dr strongly suggested I immediately start a statin as I am now in high risk of heart disease. No thanks Doc I feel better than ever ~ No statins for this lady!💪🏽
i haven't this much deep information about triglycerides in one video... and ur presentation and explanation was also very good... GOD bless u doctor... thanx for shaing this precious information...
For sure before I was on keto my numbers were 288 after 2 months of being on keto I went back for a blood test my numbers went down to 100 I saved my life

@@LeonardoSantana77 what's your update? I had a 400 triglycerides.. doc wanted me on meds but before I got the blood work I had a bowl of rice and sushi sashimi so I believe that elevated my triglycerides. I don't want to be on meds and even doc said that it's bad for my liver so I'm eating oatmeal everyday and tryin to work out everyday
@@LeonardoSantana77 going on cholesterol meds is quite an adjustment. My dad and husband are both on statins and they hate it. They get cramps and bloating, and my husband generally feels nauseous in the mornings. Doctors that care usually don’t recommend meds unless they don’t think diet will fix it or it’s an immediate risk.
Wow, this one deserves a gold star, I'm ApoE4 plus with other fat and sugar metabolism polymorphisms. The snippet about alcohol was the cherry on the cake as I quit 3 years ago. Big Mahalo Thomas, you're a lifesaver.
Great vid! 1 year ago, my triglycerides were 1500 (not a typo - one thousand five hundred). If you can peg the needle on a triglyceride test, I would have done it. I started a keto diet at that time and totally failed to stick with it. I started keto again in January ‘21 and joined a gym. I’m down 12 pounds, but my latest triglyceride test still showed 500. I’ll be putting the advice in this vid to good use and just might rewatch it a few times.
@@pranicrythms same. They must get paid to prescribe medication.. idk if that's true but they really want me on some sort of medication. I even dropped my overall cholesterol by 70 points in a month by myself (260 to 190) and they still want me on statin, but if not that, then a fibrate. I just need to be on somthing lol.
@@postalpancho it's not complicated. You shouldn't stop wanting to learn the moment a person is out of school. I hated school and learning until 20 years out of it and now nutrition and the science is fascinating to me. I would rather be able to explain "why, and how" to people when they say "kEtO iS dAnGeRoUs FoR yOu". Learning about something makes following what you are being instructed to your choice, instead of a "sheep" (just doing what's told mindlessly) approach.
In short actually , When 'food' is in the intestine it goes into the bloodstream, the transport vehicle will be the Chylomicrons ,Which is from the intestine to the liver through the bloodstream Which carries triglycerides and cholesterol , When we are actually testing triglycerides we are actually measuring VLDL, which is the transport vehicle of Triglycerides and colesterol as well , That's why it's important to fast before taking the triglyceride test. the VLDL goes from the liver to the tissues through the bloodstream as well , The main function of VLDL is to transport triglycerides for energy production or storage. When this function of VLDL is performed now it turns out in supposedly instantaneously in LDL , so Now just now when we are talking about LDL and HDL We are really talking about cholesterol, which in short cholesterol is used by the cell for cellular maintenance and so on, In a nutshell triglycerides for energy and cholesterol for cellular maintenance and hormone production , Now to understand once and for all LDL and HDL, yes these 2 will also have triglycerides, but the main function of LDL is to carry cholesterol to the cells and HDL to Remove excess cholesterol

What about those who have a history of pancreatitis? We need to keep our triglycerides down but eating high fast can be dangerous to the pancreatic enzymes. Anyone know what the best diet for history of acute pancreatitis?
Stupid question. When it comes to having cinnamon/nutmeg/whatever in your coffee, is it important to actually consume the powder? Or could you just brew the cinnamon with the coffee grounds?

Keto has helped lower my triglycerides significantly. 2017 {1197 mg/DL) no diet 2018 {604 mg/DL} no diet Apr 2019 {1101 mg/DL no diet Nov 2019 {286 mg/DL) keto 1.5 months no exercise. The lowest it has ever been. My doctor says keep doing what I'm doing and add intermittent fasting. I hope they are even lower when I get another test in 4 months.

I know the Keto community swears the triglycerides lower after a few months but mine have been high for a YEAR and never stabilized. My blood results showed that and my doctor said to finally give it up. I’m starting plant based today to give it a shot, low fat, limited dairy and no red meat at all. Going to follow up in 3 more months. Hopefully it lowers!
@@BeefNEggs057 Doubt it. When I did I got terrible kidney stones from meat consumption (I drink only water) I also had WLS so I’ve lost 56lbs in 4 months and tris have been high before surgery and still after. Any suggestions be my guests.
Eat sardines avacado olive oil ect. I eat greek yogurt full fat no bread some bluberries salads eggs ect. Ect. And 0 added sugar. No dried fruits. I eat walnuts macadamia steel cut oats with yogurt and broccoli I think u get the picture. My trig.s went from 160 to 87 to 76 to 55. My HDL was 39 went to 44 to 53 to 55. Now my tri to hdl ratio is 1to 1 perfect. Less than 2 is good. My ldl is 262 up from 210. That freaked me at first until I learned that the HDL/TRIG. ratio is better predictor.
My triglycerides have always been high…I have an A1C of 6.5 and have hypothyroidism . My Endocrynologist advised me to stay away from keto as he says it will raise my triglycerides even higher. I was so excited to start soon and now my bubble has been burst 😩 I also have no gallbladder. ????
Interestingly the highest triglycerides I ever saw in a patient was 1200. He was a hard core frutarian and thought he was eating a healthy diet. He also had severe bouts of depression and didn’t understand why. Looking back I think it was the extremely low amount of fat he consumed.
Dr Sten Ekberg did a test (video on youtube) to see what eating nothing but fruit for an extended period of time would do to his blood levels and it indeed showed a jump in triglycerides.
I’ve had blood test every year for a health program at work. Even when I was overweight and eating carbs my triglycerides were very low sometimes in the 30s.
I’m 40 my triglycerides level 220 and my cholesterol is 182 so should I worry about it ? Because my doctor said stop eating almost everything 😅so is it that bad ?
So triglycerides increase temporarily during weight loss? Do they get released in bloodstream? Because they seem high after 23 kgs loss in 4 months in my blood report?
Back injury prevents any exercise with intensity. Over 60? Any tips about keto , carnivore, eating that may be worthwhile? I’m not an athlete am in relative good health except a 250 triglyceride which may be the result of a meal shortly before my blood test. Lol. The doctor wanted to start me on drugs. Nope. I told him diet got me here it can take me out of it too!
Does adding flax to your protein create a superfood? BMR goes up with compound weight training in short term. The shock makes your brain call out to triglycerides and muscles stop burning fat which are the slow or normal fuel source until 106> BMR. Glycogen only gets used with exercise.
Hey Thomas, my wife and I are considering trying to have another baby. Anything I should know about this with intermittent or prolonged fasting? Thanks!
@@RanAmitay agree, but what is the real number? If you're trying to gauge it, then better to have a clean test than one that could be spiked by outside factors. But at the end of the day it's about what is healthy, and it's probably good to cycle off coffee once in a while
Psyllium? How can it help on a keto diet? Can you use it to eat more carbs without getting kicked out of ketosis? Or use it for crisis control to minimize the damage when I've caved into temptation? . Thanks for all you do!
Of course there are theories of how it might work as opposed to real life. And I don't imagine there's a lot of big pharma funding to explore this question. Or is there? Thanks!
Hey. I’ve been on keto since October 3 and currently down 45 lbs. I am so happy that I’ve successfully lost weight and want to continue to lose another 12 lbs. But I went to the doctor last week for blood work and my dr said my triglycerides have increased since my last visit ,which was prior to going on keto. I’m going to go for another test a month from now. I am going to try Mediterranean keto to see if it helps. Any other advice would be great thanks !
Trigylcerides: energy reserve in fats Why they rise: •too many carbs (reduce carbs by 20-30%) •genetic mutation •time (how long have you fasted? - intermittent fasting) Possible Solutions: •Try Mediterranean Keto •fiber •higher intensity endurance work
When I started feeling the best on a carnivore/ keto diet I got a test with high triglycerides, doctor gave me a “big pharma” talk and I said FUCK NO. This video really helpful
as much as I know, when it comes from animals purine, the body will only "take" the uric acid needed and clear the rest of the purine out of the body without even touching it xD it's harmless, they are pathways to control it safely; However, fructose, alcohols, etc, ALSO create uric acid as a bio-product of their behing digested... and such form is far more difficult to excreate.. (that's why you would find people eating Highfructse corn syrup and beer having gout, and not carnivore dieters) but that's very simpmified, and would deserve a video from our servant Thomas
@@the.french.lobstercolinrau2728 actually it runs in my family. My father doesn't eat any meat nor does he drink. He has always been really clean. Still he has suffered a lot with high uric acid and gout. I on the other hand, am a very occasional drinker and consume very less non veg and at an age of 28 i have very high uric acid for past 4 years. My last result came out to be 10.2 mg/dl. Thankfully the gout pain hasn't started yet, but I fear for it. Also i think that it adversely effects the kidneys...
@@acesheaven Bless your family.... I forgot to mention that starches can also lead to uric acid, especially bread, I know some that just see their symptoms disappear once they quit it... They are so many factors that make one person potentially react, it's quite hard, year after year, the things we might eaten since childhood sudenly became a trigger due to the malfunction we have build in our organs.. Hope it's getting better with you Data (clinical or anecdotal) aren't quite clear, despite the fact that even high protein consumptions in healthy subjet doesn't cause chronic high uric acid neither damage the kidney, however it can reveal if someone already has renal insufficiency.. And if proteins (and which kinds !) play a role, it's clear that a lot of other nutrients and particles are involved... and the people informed on that subject are scarce
@@the.french.lobstercolinrau2728 Your response is refreshing and enlightening. I also have gout and since I switched to carnivore, I have had no flare-ups whatsoever. You explained the reason for that very well. Thank you!
where does fat get burned? Like triglycerides get stored in fat cells and then moved to the mitochondria or where to get used? Thank you Thomas and all your followers and such. Love and happy health to all.
Niacin worked for me because it is also boosting my NAD levels as well as aiding me with my LP(a) /a hidden cardiac marker and increasing my HDL. Flushing is one thing that is bothering me though, so, I take a cold shower whenever I have it. Simple.
My triglyceride level is 216 mg/DL could you recommend any best herbs to lower the levels back to normal my fasting glucose went up from 105 mg/DL to 116 mg/DL both the triglyceride and fasting parameters are very high that I need to lower to normal asap!! I got addicted to swiss and polish chocolates consuming about 200g of those per day also was consuming high carbohydrate food like pasta,bread,biryani and was even unknowingly taking expired cod liver fish oil softgels everything leading to abnormal unhealthy high levels of triglycerides and fasting glucose level fortunately the blood test was an eye opener revealing how terrible my health condition was to take action to get those unhealthy levels back to normal
Simple way to lower triglycerides: avoid sugars, eat lots of veggies, and only a small amount of carbs that are high in fiber, rice is fine but try to go for brown rice even though it snot much better than white rice, just dont eat more than a handful (cooked). and eat lot sof lean protein also dont forget healthy fats : avocados + eggs + olive oil - and non saturated fats
If you're doing keto, sweet potato would be a better choice as it has a lower glycemic index. Whole grain rice is a good choice if you're not doing keto and you're physically active, but a good whole grain bread would also be acceptable (something old fashioned and heavy, like Ezekiel bread, or traditional whole wheat sourdough, not fluffy sandwich bread). Some people on keto diets can eat beans (particularly if they are physically active) and these are good sources of low glycemic carbs and protein. If you have genetic mutations like APOE4, this is especially useful as many are decent sources of lean protein.
Great video, Thomas. We need to see a video in great detail on how you eat on a daily basis. Have the camera follow you around. Anybody else who wants to see this, like this post!! #ForwardThinking
I think it's time for me to take a break from keto. I have had great results with it, but this past year my triglycerides keep going up. I'm at around 950 now. Keto is not working for me anymore. Sidenote, I do strict keto.
Can your triglycerides be to low? Mine were 56 before keto and 46 after 4 months of keto. Going to get another lipid test soon (last done in 2018). Just curious if they can be to low
Best to have an eating window 12pm- 8 pm seems easiest from me i can skip break fast wait till lunch then eat a fee more meals then call it a night around 10
In my blood reports, total cholesterol is 140 and LDL is 57, HDL is 45, but the triglyceride is 220. now what I have to do? I am 5 foot 9 inches. Weight is 64 kg. I reduce my weight from 76 to 64 kg in the last 6 months. I didn't smoke nor alcohol, neither chewing tobacco. My sugar level is 65 empty stomach. My bp is below 120/80. I exercise a lot, but still, it doesn't reduce. It remains the same as I took the test 8 months before. Sir, now suggest to me what I can do? my age is 29
If you have the APOE4 mutation you should significantly minimize consumption of saturated fats, because your body won't handle saturated fat as well as somebody that doesn't have this mutation. This affects cardiovascular risks but also risk for Alzheimer's amyloid plaque formation.
I agree that you cannot go wrong by eating lots of EV Olive Oil, Avocado oil, along with olives and avo's, and fatty fish. Don't forget the humble sardine! Down from 70 mg/dl to 63 mg/dl from 2021 to 2022 on the trigs, pretty happy with those levels.
LOL Your STARTING triglyceride level was 70? and you were worried? Wow, dude. I kill just to get mine below 150. The last drop of alcohol I had was in 2014. The last time I had any bread, pasta, rice, cake, ice cream, etc was in 2014. My triglycerides are still over 200. It is very, very frustrating.
@@kaypie3112 my number is 228 and my doctor says there’s no proof that low 200’s causes heart disease. I’ve expressed my concern and he said not to worry.
i just had my 1st ever bloodwork done. one thing that i noticed is that my triglyceride level seems to be very low, 65 mg/dl. i did it in a fasted state. i'm 36 yrs old. is the lab wrong? lol. P.S. i don't really exercise
My triglycerides been high all my life, even when I was in the military. Also my HDL always been low. I try eat right, I do not like seafood. So I take fish oil and exercise when I can. But now I been exercising 4-5 days a week. So how can I lower my triglycerides, lose weight. Sometimes when I lift weights, my weight goes up. Why
My understanding is that table sugar is made up of a glucose molecule and and a fructose molecule. So the liver gets involved with the breakdown of fructose from table sugar.
my trigylerides was about 2,200.......with a zero carb zero sugar diet along with walking 6 miles a day i chopped that down to 450......and im looking forward to another test because i also now strenuously work out with a dumbell 3 times a week or every other day if i can

Why fundamentally high triglyserides is a bad thing? So mindblowingly many videos are worrying about high triglyserides. It should be well established what is wrong with that "high"? Can we quantify the upper limit?

How do you feel when your triglycerides are elevated? Do you lethargic?
You videos this week have been an anchor for me, feels so good to wake up to these!! I’m transforming bit by bit each day, this content helps tremendously!
After 8 months KETO losing #40 my LDL went up to 20 points over average ~ went back 3 months later for a recheck..up over 215. Dr strongly suggested I immediately start a statin as I am now in high risk of heart disease. No thanks Doc I feel better than ever ~ No statins for this lady!💪🏽
you felt better but your ldl was 215? Have you since gotten the number down?
i haven't this much deep information about triglycerides in one video... and ur presentation and explanation was also very good... GOD bless u doctor... thanx for shaing this precious information...
For sure before I was on keto my numbers were 288 after 2 months of being on keto I went back for a blood test my numbers went down to 100 I saved my life

Wow, this one deserves a gold star, I'm ApoE4 plus with other fat and sugar metabolism polymorphisms. The snippet about alcohol was the cherry on the cake as I quit 3 years ago. Big Mahalo Thomas, you're a lifesaver.
Great vid! 1 year ago, my triglycerides were 1500 (not a typo - one thousand five hundred). If you can peg the needle on a triglyceride test, I would have done it. I started a keto diet at that time and totally failed to stick with it. I started keto again in January ‘21 and joined a gym. I’m down 12 pounds, but my latest triglyceride test still showed 500. I’ll be putting the advice in this vid to good use and just might rewatch it a few times.

In short actually , When 'food' is in the intestine it goes into the bloodstream, the transport vehicle will be the Chylomicrons ,Which is from the intestine to the liver through the bloodstream Which carries triglycerides and cholesterol , When we are actually testing triglycerides we are actually measuring VLDL, which is the transport vehicle of Triglycerides and colesterol as well , That's why it's important to fast before taking the triglyceride test. the VLDL goes from the liver to the tissues through the bloodstream as well , The main function of VLDL is to transport triglycerides for energy production or storage. When this function of VLDL is performed now it turns out in supposedly instantaneously in LDL , so Now just now when we are talking about LDL and HDL We are really talking about cholesterol, which in short cholesterol is used by the cell for cellular maintenance and so on, In a nutshell triglycerides for energy and cholesterol for cellular maintenance and hormone production , Now to understand once and for all LDL and HDL, yes these 2 will also have triglycerides, but the main function of LDL is to carry cholesterol to the cells and HDL to Remove excess cholesterol
Thank you bro. My triglycerides were really high. Your video has help me understand what I need to do to get it down.

What about drinking zero carb alcohol (e.g. vodka) during fasting? Does that raise triglycerides when there is no food intake?
Unfortunately, yes. It is the alcohol itself that is the issue.

Interestingly the highest triglycerides I ever saw in a patient was 1200. He was a hard core frutarian and thought he was eating a healthy diet. He also had severe bouts of depression and didn’t understand why. Looking back I think it was the extremely low amount of fat he consumed.
Fruits are also naturally high in fructose, which can lead to weight gain & other metabolic issues when eaten in excess.

Thank you Thomas this was explained so nicely I totally understood 🙂
Does adding flax to your protein create a superfood? BMR goes up with compound weight training in short term. The shock makes your brain call out to triglycerides and muscles stop burning fat which are the slow or normal fuel source until 106> BMR. Glycogen only gets used with exercise.

The goal is not to "pass" the blood test, but to be healthy. It's not fooling your doctor, or anyone, but yourself.
@@RanAmitay agree, but what is the real number? If you're trying to gauge it, then better to have a clean test than one that could be spiked by outside factors. But at the end of the day it's about what is healthy, and it's probably good to cycle off coffee once in a while

When I started feeling the best on a carnivore/ keto diet I got a test with high triglycerides, doctor gave me a “big pharma” talk and I said FUCK NO. This video really helpful
so the Chylomicrons need cholesterol to be formed? and do LDLs carry both tryglytcerides and cholesterol on same boat at once?
Thomas could you please do a video on uric acid levels in blood and IF effects over it. Also the protein intake effects upon it.
as much as I know, when it comes from animals purine, the body will only "take" the uric acid needed and clear the rest of the purine out of the body without even touching it xD it's harmless, they are pathways to control it safely;
However, fructose, alcohols, etc, ALSO create uric acid as a bio-product of their behing digested... and such form is far more difficult to excreate..
(that's why you would find people eating Highfructse corn syrup and beer having gout, and not carnivore dieters)
but that's very simpmified, and would deserve a video from our servant Thomas
@@the.french.lobstercolinrau2728 actually it runs in my family. My father doesn't eat any meat nor does he drink. He has always been really clean. Still he has suffered a lot with high uric acid and gout. I on the other hand, am a very occasional drinker and consume very less non veg and at an age of 28 i have very high uric acid for past 4 years. My last result came out to be 10.2 mg/dl. Thankfully the gout pain hasn't started yet, but I fear for it. Also i think that it adversely effects the kidneys...
@@acesheaven Bless your family.... I forgot to mention that starches can also lead to uric acid, especially bread, I know some that just see their symptoms disappear once they quit it...
They are so many factors that make one person potentially react, it's quite hard, year after year, the things we might eaten since childhood sudenly became a trigger due to the malfunction we have build in our organs.. Hope it's getting better with you
Data (clinical or anecdotal) aren't quite clear, despite the fact that even high protein consumptions in healthy subjet doesn't cause chronic high uric acid neither damage the kidney, however it can reveal if someone already has renal insufficiency..
And if proteins (and which kinds !) play a role, it's clear that a lot of other nutrients and particles are involved... and the people informed on that subject are scarce
@@the.french.lobstercolinrau2728 Your response is refreshing and enlightening. I also have gout and since I switched to carnivore, I have had no flare-ups whatsoever. You explained the reason for that very well. Thank you!

where does fat get burned? Like triglycerides get stored in fat cells and then moved to the mitochondria or where to get used? Thank you Thomas and all your followers and such. Love and happy health to all.
Thomas, you forgot to mention fish oil. Fish oil is powerful stuff. Niacin is powerful as well.
Niacin worked for me because it is also boosting my NAD levels as well as aiding me with my LP(a) /a hidden cardiac marker and increasing my HDL.
Flushing is one thing that is bothering me though, so, I take a cold shower whenever I have it. Simple.
My triglyceride level is 216 mg/DL could you recommend any best herbs to lower the levels back to normal my fasting glucose went up from 105 mg/DL to 116 mg/DL both the triglyceride and fasting parameters are very high that I need to lower to normal asap!! I got addicted to swiss and polish chocolates consuming about 200g of those per day also was consuming high carbohydrate food like pasta,bread,biryani and was even unknowingly taking expired cod liver fish oil softgels everything leading to abnormal unhealthy high levels of triglycerides and fasting glucose level fortunately the blood test was an eye opener revealing how terrible my health condition was to take action to get those unhealthy levels back to normal
Simple way to lower triglycerides: avoid sugars, eat lots of veggies, and only a small amount of carbs that are high in fiber, rice is fine but try to go for brown rice even though it snot much better than white rice, just dont eat more than a handful (cooked). and eat lot sof lean protein
also dont forget healthy fats : avocados + eggs + olive oil - and non saturated fats
If you're doing keto, sweet potato would be a better choice as it has a lower glycemic index. Whole grain rice is a good choice if you're not doing keto and you're physically active, but a good whole grain bread would also be acceptable (something old fashioned and heavy, like Ezekiel bread, or traditional whole wheat sourdough, not fluffy sandwich bread).
Some people on keto diets can eat beans (particularly if they are physically active) and these are good sources of low glycemic carbs and protein. If you have genetic mutations like APOE4, this is especially useful as many are decent sources of lean protein.
Not Simple. I do all of the above and I have as of this week........865 triglycerides.
@@illinoisjones8003 how about now a days? mine were 1235 a month ago, I'm on keto and will test soon in about 3 months

I think it's time for me to take a break from keto. I have had great results with it, but this past year my triglycerides keep going up. I'm at around 950 now. Keto is not working for me anymore. Sidenote, I do strict keto.
Can your triglycerides be to low? Mine were 56 before keto and 46 after 4 months of keto. Going to get another lipid test soon (last done in 2018). Just curious if they can be to low
Best to have an eating window 12pm- 8 pm seems easiest from me i can skip break fast wait till lunch then eat a fee more meals then call it a night around 10
In my blood reports, total cholesterol is 140 and LDL is 57, HDL is 45, but the triglyceride is 220. now what I have to do? I am 5 foot 9 inches. Weight is 64 kg. I reduce my weight from 76 to 64 kg in the last 6 months. I didn't smoke nor alcohol, neither chewing tobacco. My sugar level is 65 empty stomach. My bp is below 120/80. I exercise a lot, but still, it doesn't reduce. It remains the same as I took the test 8 months before. Sir, now suggest to me what I can do? my age is 29
If you have the APOE4 mutation you should significantly minimize consumption of saturated fats, because your body won't handle saturated fat as well as somebody that doesn't have this mutation. This affects cardiovascular risks but also risk for Alzheimer's amyloid plaque formation.
Interesting note about fruit ... i eat a bunch f fruit ... i eat W30 tho ... maybe i should look into Keto?
Hey I got prescribed crestor to lower cholesterol should I proceed with it or follow a different plan?
I agree that you cannot go wrong by eating lots of EV Olive Oil, Avocado oil, along with olives and avo's, and fatty fish. Don't forget the humble sardine! Down from 70 mg/dl to 63 mg/dl from 2021 to 2022 on the trigs, pretty happy with those levels.

Amazing content!
can pre workouts cause trygleceride ?
So eating low carbs are the main key ???
My understanding is that table sugar is made up of a glucose molecule and and a fructose molecule. So the liver gets involved with the breakdown of fructose from table sugar.
my trigylerides was about 2,200.......with a zero carb zero sugar diet along with walking 6 miles a day i chopped that down to 450......and im looking forward to another test because i also now strenuously work out with a dumbell 3 times a week or every other day if i can
