Optimize Triglycerides

Keep triglycerides below 100 mg/dL; no more than 2x HDL cholesterol, and ideally at or below HDL cholesterol. Lowering them is said to be most easily accomplished through carbohydrate restriction, with energy restriction as a first-order strategy as well.

“if a person has elevated triglycerides and I consider anything over 100 to be elevated, even though most laboratory tests would consider normal to be up to 150 milligrams per deciliter, we would want to fix their insulin resistance.”
