Is low blood glucose the only concern?

When one watch the carb intake very carefully but ate lots of fats and protein, will he has higher risk of high blood triglyceride and protein byproducts in the blood?

That hasn't happened to me.

My last trig score was 0.78, the one before 0.75 and the one before 0.73.

I'd imagine if that were the case we'd of died off as a species along time ago and wouldn't be having this conversation. I eat a lot of fats and protein and very little in the way of carbs and my trigs are consistently around 0.9 to 1.0

So maybe not a problem for most people. So carb is what we should mainly focus on. Fat and amino acids may depend less on action of insulin.

My triglycerides fell once I started low carb plus extra fats - lower every time it has been tested. My liver function tests improved too.

No. High blood pressure and obesity are also of concern and treatable with a lower carb higher fat approach. Often they respond in conjunction with one another to reduced carb dieting.

Blood pressure is very important. I think it is worth while having a blood pressure machine at home for testing whenever you feel the need to. I test mine from time to time. Quite convenient to have one I find.

Definitely blood pressure and also heart rate. When the resting readings of these two are high, it may spell that a stroke or heart attack is near.
