Meal plan

Triglyceride Torpedo

Focus on high-fiber vegetables, lean proteins, and healthy fats to reduce carbohydrate intake and lower triglyceride levels. Incorporate omega-3 fatty acids from sources like fish, replace simple carbs with whole grains, and avoid sugary foods and refined carbohydrates. Limit alcohol and trans fats, while including moderate exercise to complement the dietary changes for better triglyceride management.

Meal plan

The Low Fat Vanguard

A meal plan for high triglycerides and DASH users emphasizes low saturated and trans fats, lean proteins, whole grains, fruits, vegetables, and low-fat dairy, aimed at reducing bad cholesterol and blood pressure. It typically includes heart-healthy fats from sources like fish, nuts, and olive oil, while minimizing added sugars and refined carbohydrates that can spike triglyceride levels. Portion control and regular meals are structured to maintain steady blood sugar levels and promote a healthy weight, both key in managing triglyceride and blood pressure levels.
