[QUOTE="LittleGreyCat, post: 1431878, member: 6467"] I'm in the high cholesterol low BG boat at the moment and found this old thread very interesting. One thing I am trying to grasp; triglycerides in the blood are viewed as a problem but according to my reading once you are fat adapted you are fuelled mainly by triglycerides with residual ketones and glucose for brain fuel because they can cross the blood/brain barrier. So it would seem that triglycerides are central to daily metabolism. More reading required. Especially as I also read in these threads that triglycerides are the main thing that vary between a normal and fasting blood test so presumably are being actively added to the blood when you eat then removed from the blood when you don't. Which makes them look like the main fuel transport between the gut and the cells. [/QUOTE]
