@MyM, you can see from the following that your Trigs are well below the recommended guidelines for people with diabetes:

Your total cholesterol level should be below 4.0mmol/l.

LDL levels should be less than 2.0mmol/l.

HDL levels should be 1.0mmol/l or above in men and 1.2mmol/l or above in women.

Triglyceride levels should be 1.7mmol/l or less.

How can trigs at 0.46 be below guidelines if the guideline is 1.7 or below? Sorry Noblehead, I'd really like to know.

Moved from a previous thread to avoid derailing it.

Well 0.46 is below the 1.7 figure, my own trigs are 0.50 which I am told by my Endo is excellent.

Sorry @noblehead this is probably a misunderstanding. I thought you meant it was bad to be below guideline! Sorry about that!
