In this video, we’re going to talk about high triglyceride levels and what you can do to lower them. Blood fats are known as triglycerides, which are the main component of fat cells.

High triglyceride levels are not caused by the fats that you’re eating, they’re caused by the carbohydrates. Carbohydrates convert to triglycerides with the help of insulin. Insulin resistance keeps your blood sugar high and the high sugars are converted to triglycerides.

If a person with high triglycerides removes carbohydrates from their diet, they can quickly lower their triglycerides. If someone has a genetic disorder, removing carbs from the diet may not lower triglycerides completely, however this is rare.

Triglyceride levels are determined by the following ranges in American units:
•Normal= less than or equal to 150
•Slight risk= 151-199
•Some risk= 200-499
•High= greater than or equal to 500
