I lower my triglycerides with leafy green veggies every day. I change it up kale in my soup, spinach and tomato omelet, salad, or kale and spinach in my smoothie. It's worked for me and they go down fast. I don't have to worry about cholesterol, but I read if you raise your HDL it will lower your LDL. I've read olive oil is ok, but avacado, flax seed, chia seeds and various nuts are the best fats and proteins. I also added beans to my diet. I also increased fruit and veggies and lowered my meat and diary and carbs to get my type 2 diabetes under control. Most my research comes from nutritionfacts.org but some from nutritionstudies.org, China study, engine 2 diet, and various documentaries on Netflix. good luck. I actually think you may like the engine 2 story cus it's fireman with a bet and heavier meals than I like... But I tried some of the ingredient to replace unhealthy ones, such as nutritional yeast to replace cheese. You can put it on foods like powder cheese and adds vitamin b's. I liked least dr Campbell but he has helped a lot... He did the China study and has tried to help the us guidelines. He knows what he's talking about too and he's made some good changes. It's just he's more in it for money or fame and that's fine but I am broke college student. I just joined and the people here are so nice. I just felt I should try to help someone cus several of them cheered me up today. My a1c now 5.7 from 7.1, total cholesterol 140 from 176, and I think triglycerides 250 something to now 176... From May to July. And a1c checked this week 5.3. Good luck!
