    Just found out my triglycerides went down 54 points and I now have a ratio in the optimal range. I followed these tips, and ate a keto diet since April of this year. (Also have lost 30 lbs, and walk daily for at least 30 minutes). Woohoooo!!! Thanks Kait for making me healthier!!

    I figured out that the food pyramid is to be turned upside down and eat two meals a day. Breakfast is between 9 & 10 AM and the 2nd meal of the day between 4 & 5 PM along with an occasional 36 hour fast. No sugar/starch low carbohydrate diet and the weight comes off, triglycerides fall in range, HDL goes up and blood sugar drops and life is good.

    I take a slab of salmon, cook it until 3/4 done, let it cool, cut it up into 5, vacuum pack them, and freeze them. Make a large pot of 12 ingredient vegetable soup. Then every day I take out a salmon portion, heat it, heat up a large bowl of vegetable soup, place the salmon in bottom of the bowl and add the boiling soup to it. Eat this every day. I lost weight and lowered my triglycerides. When I run out of salmon I will substitute with diced chicken, beef, or pork.

    So I began making some changes to my diet and activity. I started in December 2021. I weighed 252 Lbs. my total cholesterol was 247, HDL 44, LDL 169, Triglycerides 172. I started eating healthier, and working out regularly. As of today, my weight is down to. 236. I just had my latest lipid test yesterday and my total cholesterol is down to 226, HDL 40, LDL lowered to 144, but my Triglycerides went up to 212. I’m so confused as to why. I feel a lot healthier and I feel like I’ve been improving my lifestyle. I really liked your video, but was curious on your thoughts as to why they may have gone up. I do enjoy a glass of wine a few days a week, but I’m not a big drinker. I really don’t eat “sugary” snacks. My breakfast is usually plain oatmeal with some protein powder mixed in. I have a follow up with my Dr, but I’m just trying to do mu own research. By the way, I’m a 45 year old male.

    Likely all these tips work but I only use one. For the last 30 years I've eaten a very low carb diet. I allow myself 12 net carbs per day. Net carbs are sugars. My triglycerides are between 45 and 60 and currently my hdl is at 80. I put these levels down to my low carb diet and nothing else that I do. Your triglycerides are a direct result of the amount of sugars you consume but even whole grains and fruit will raise those levels.

    I'm not overweight , so I thought eating unhealthy wouldn't affect my cholesterol levels...I was wrong! In October it was 6.5mmol/L 😮. My triglycerides were very low though, thankfully. I've been eating very healthy, lots of veggies, fruit, potatoes, oats etc and have managed to reduce it to 4.1mmol/L, which I'm delighted with. My partner has always eaten very healthy and luckily has high HDL 1.6mmol/L, but his triglycerides are above the recommendation limit. Here in the UK the normal range is 0 to 1.6, but his was 1.9. We were both very surprised, but have since found out it's caused by his medication. It just seems so unfair

    I've learned the hard way that carnivore/keto doesn't always help cholesterol. There are those of us with a genetic mutation that completely change everything. I was an active alcoholic that ate lean meat, a lot of starches, and plenty of carbs. My Tris and HDL were in the normal range. A strict carnivore for a few months and then keto saw my tris quadruple. Not everyone processes fatty meat the same. This is something people should be aware of before blindly following what they see on the internet.

All this combined saw my levels drop significantly. I'm still a little high, but that's genetic. No matter how I ate, how much I exercised, etc., I've had slightly elevated Tris/HDL since the first time I was tested, so I'm not concerned with levels hovering around the high point. I refuse to take a statin because it's terrible for testosterone, something else the Dr's don't tell you when they try to force pills on you the second your cholesterol isn't in their range.

    As you mentioned about the blue light effect it has on you from your devices, I have the app on my devices already installed and so I set mine to on mode 24/7, minus -1 minute because you have to allow one minute in the 24-hour period that the blocker is not on for the 24-hour timer to be reset, so I set mine for beginning at 3:00 a.m. and it turns off at 2:59 a.m. and turns back on one minute later and stays on the entire 24 hours minus one minute therefore I don't get exposed to any blue light on my devices at all because the blocker is always on. So the use of blue blocker eyeglasses or anything else is unnecessary.
    and if you don't have a blue blocker app already comes installed on the device then install one (they also come under the name, Night Light) and use it the way I do So if you turn it on and set it to the highest setting in the red zone and you won't have any blue light at all, therefore no interference to your circadian rhythm, or to sleep, or any other adverse effect it causes.
