Triglycerides
My doctor said a normal triglyceride level should be between 40-180 mg/dL. Mine is 226 and it means I have a high blood fat level. He also said fat in the blood consists of two forms - cholesterol and triglyceride. Treating my high triglyceride level will have a similar effect on my cholesterol level. Talking of hitting two birds in one stone.
And to treat this condition is to reduce my dietary fat. I have to increase intake of non-fat food. Olive oil. High-fibre diet. Psyllium. Beta-carotene. L-carnitine. The list of recommended cure is never ending.
And aerobic exercise. This I am doing this afternoon. Anybody interested?
