In India many face high triglycerides.
The standard advice is: go low fat and take this statin (with fenofibrate)

But studies show that lowering carbs and increasing fats lowers triglycerides.

If we start reading peer reviewed published studies then we can learn more…

To every dietician who was a part of this,

What price do you put on human health?

HOW much did you get paid to misinform/gaslight my generation?

In India, even the 'educated qualified' people think that eggs raise serum cholesterol

We've been eating saturated animal fats for millions of years

We've been eating seed oils for 155 years

How did we ever get fooled into ditching what was our primary energy source for millions of years to adopt seed oils (industrial waste) as the go-to cooking oil of choice?

TRIGLYCERIDE MATTERS: A high fasting triglyceride level is so often a reflection of a high carb diet So cutting sugar and starchy carbs helps We found on average the triglyceride level dropped by a third in those who went low carb Published here nutrition.bmj.com/content/6/1/46

Hey McDonald's,

When you switched to cooking your fries in vegetable oils instead of beef tallow because it was 'healthier',
