What is triglyceride

You or someone you know may have been
diagnosed with high triglycerides. This
Blog will show you what they are and
how their levels are measured. High
triglycerides can have harmful effects
on your body. Triglycerides are a type of
fat or lipid found in your blood. Your
body uses triglycerides for energy.
 One place triglycerides come from is
your liver, another is from the food you eat. Foods that may raise your triglycerides
include fatty foods such as hot dogs and
tropical oils, refined carbohydrates such
as french fries, foods high in simple
sugars such as Donuts and alcohol.
So how do triglycerides get to the cells
that need them. Triglycerides in food are
digested and eventually reach your liver,
in the liver both the triglycerides from
your food and those made in your liver
are packaged together with proteins each
resulting molecule is called a
lipoprotein. The lipoproteins travel throughout the body in your bloodstream. They deliver triglycerides to your cells which use them for energy or if you have more, then you need fat
cells store the triglycerides as body fat.
If you are twenty years of age or older
the National Institutes of Health
recommends you have a blood test every
five years. The test is called a fasting lipoprotein profile.During this test a blood sample will be taken from your arm after you have not eaten
for nine to twelve hours. This blood test
can reveal whether your triglycerides
fall into a healthy range, for most
people fasting triglycerides should be
less than 150 milligrams per deciliter.
500 or higher puts you into the very
high range this means there is too much
fat in your blood. Very high triglycerides can increase your risk of pancreatitis and other
cardiovascular events like heart disease.
Ask your doctor what your triglyceride
level should be. In many cases lifestyle changes can help maintain healthy triglyceride levels,
these changes include eating a diet low
in sweets, refined carbohydrates and
alcohol. Getting regular exercise managing your
weight and no smoking.
Medications can also help treat impaired
triglyceride levels if your doctor
prescribed medication to treat high
triglycerides. It is important to take it
as directed and report any side effects
you may have.
Have you ever wondered why your doctor
might want to run tests to see how your
triglyceride levels are doing are they
really important and do they really
matter. Well triglycerides are an
important measure for heart health which
is only the first cause of death
worldwide. By the way if they are above
normal levels you might also be
suffering from health conditions like
diabetes, obesity, heart problems and even
kidney failure this means that they are
in fact very very important so in
today's blog i'm going to reveal how
you can lower your triglyceride levels
naturally and prevent or reverse
many terrible health conditions.
Triglycerides are a very
important measure for heart health for
example this is why your doctor will
always want to measure them when you're
going through a lab test they are the
most common type of fat metabolized by
the human body and can either be
consumed or made by the liver.
Triglycerides normally circulate in your
bloodstream and they do so because they
supply energy to almost every single
cell you have. If they're not used up
they're usually stored as fat for future
use which sometimes never happens. If
this becomes a problem you might start
to see other health conditions including
for example heart disease, obesity,
diabetes and even renal failure so you
have to be careful and you have to know
how to control them so in today's blog
i'm reviewing how you can lower your
triglyceride levels naturally and
prevent or reverse many terrible health conditions.
Number one. Stop eating extra sugar, focus to what i'm about to say because this will blow your mind. The american heart association recommends consuming no more than 7 teaspoons of added sugar per day, now there's a
problem because on average, people are
consuming close to 19 teaspoons per day which is almost three times as much the daily
excessive recommended dose, now just so
you know the extra sugar you're
consuming in your diet is turned in the
human body into triglycerides this leads
to obviously an increase in blood
triglyceride levels which later
increases your chances of suffering from
heart disease, fatty liver disease,
diabetes, and many many other health
conditions. As a matter of fact if you're
looking to reduce triglyceride levels,
limiting your sugar intake is probably
one of the most important things you
should be doing. So lower packaged goods
packaged foods that have extra
sugar in them, try to consume at the most
five teaspoons of sugar that you can
calculate in your entire day on your
diet.
 Number two.  Eat more fiber. Fiber is a substance that the human body cannot digest. It's found in plant-based foods for example fruits, vegetables, grains and legumes and just
so you know fiber is found on most or in
most healthy foods or real foods that
you can consume. Now fiber can come in
soluble and insoluble form both, very
important by the way soluble fiber
specifically dissolves in water and
helps lower cholesterol triglycerides
and improves even sugar control. Now the
good news is including more fiber in
your diet can decrease the absorption of
sugar fat and obviously triglycerides. Very important this obviously helps lower the amount of triglycerides being absorbed by your blood or in your bloodstream and even one study
researchers showed that supplementing
with rice bran fiber decreases blood
triglycerides by seven to eight percent
just with diet.
Number three. Garlic has tons of
health benefits in natural medicine and
reducing triglycerides is one of them.
Research has shown that garlic or
consuming garlic can lower these levels
according to 39 different scientific
studies. The only thing you need to do is consume it regularly in every food. Every day you
can find it maybe in the supermarket, you
can find it in a supplement form do it,
however you want the thing is that you
consume it if you need something
effective that can help you reduce
triglyceride levels and cholesterol.
Number four Cinnamon tea. Cinnamon is
also known for having many health
benefits and helping reduce sugar
control, accelerating metabolism and on
top of that improving triglyceride
levels. You see cinnamon has the power to
improve insulin sensitivity because it
decreases insulin resistance at a
cellular level, this means the body
increases its capability of using sugar
of burning triglycerides as a source of
energy. If this happens then obviously
triglyceride levels decrease up to 29%.
In according to several studies the only
thing you need to do is try to drink it,
maybe prepared as tea or even as a
powdered form no more than five grams
per day. Very important that detail if
you need something effective that
improves your metabolic rate and
contains cinnamon at the same time with
other ingredients that improve obviously
burning sugar and triglycerides.
Number five.  You need exercise. One of the most important things doctors will always tell you. If you have problems with triglycerides is
that you need exercise. Believe it or not
the main risk factor today with patients
that have triglyceride levels problems
is actually their physical activity. They
do not go through exercise, they don't
have physical activity and they don't
have no way the body can actually burn
more than what they really need every
single day, so get some exercise in your
body, start going through i don't know
aerobic exercise, go to the gym
lift some weights do whatever you can so
that the body can burn more than what it
really needs to every day.
