Cholesterol Trigs help

[bigsi1984]

Hello,

Getting my HbA1c down nicely and my weight too with LCHF. However in the last three months my trigs have gone from 0.95 to 1.8.

Overall still 4.4
HDL 1.33
LDL 2.25

All largely unchanged.

Was just wondering if there may be something causing that trig rise.

Any help is much appreciated.

Did you fast before having the blood draw? It is best to fast for about 12 hours before a lipid panel

Also recent weight loss can put trigs up temporarily.

I agree with both the above posts. If you didn't fast the trigs can be higher than if you did fast.
