My triglycerides are high what does this mean?!


Question: My triglycerides are high what does this mean!?
I don't even know what they are but the dr told me the levels were a bit high, I can't even spell itWww@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
Triglycerides are fatty acids, there are 'good' ones and 'bad' ones, your doc was probably referring to the 'bad' ones!. You will find 'good' fatty acids in oily fish and avocados, these ones are very good for you!. You will find 'bad' ones in animal fat including dairy products!.

I recommend making these simple changes to your diet in order to limit your intake of 'bad' fatty acids;

Cut the fat off your meat before you cook it,
Buy the lean/heart smart meats,
Avoid deep fried food,
Swap butter for margarine,
Use oil when cooking instead of butter,
Cut back on soft cheeses,

You may also like to serve yourself slightly less meat and more vege to compensate!.

Hope this helpsWww@Answer-Health@Com
