Dietary fiber
Dietary fiber can help control ET and improve quality of life. Eat lots of high-fiber foods because they support digestion by drawing water to the colon to soften stools for easy passage. Fiber also reacts with good gut bacteria to add bulk to the stool, preventing watery or loose stools (diarrhea). Eat foods like whole grains to stick to a low-sugar and high-fiber diet can provide immediate relief from digestive tract problems and reduce triglycerides.
Reduce carbs
Sticking to a low-carb diet can do wonders for elevated triglycerides levels. A low-carb diet releases insulin, which helps glucose enter the body’s cells, where it can be used for energy. A low-carb diet ensures that all the stored fats are burned for energy, which leads to weight loss.
Start a low-carb diet today and watch your high triglyceride levels drop drastically.
Avoid Transfat
Transfat is a dangerous type of fat that can clog the arteries and increases your risk of developing heart diseases. They raise your LDL (bad) cholesterol and lower your HDL (good) cholesterol. This causes cholesterol to build up in the blood vessels that transport blood to and from the heart. TransFat can increase your risk for heart diseases and spike up your triglycerides.
