High Triglycerides Prevention
Losing and maintaining weight, limiting fats and sugars, increasing physical activity and limiting or abstaining from smoking and alcohol are excellent changes to make to help prevent high triglycerides.
Avoiding saturated fats, such as red meats, cured meats and full-fat dairy products, may help. Healthy fats, such as olive or canola oil, avocadoes, nuts and olives are also great choices. Avoiding processed and fried foods can help restrict triglyceride levels to normal.1‘Triglycerides: Why do they Matter?’ Mayo Clinic, www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/high-blood-cholesterol/in-depth/triglycerides/art-20048186.
