Example diet for high triglycerides

Premise

The following indications are for information purposes EXCLUSIVELY and are not intended to replace the opinion of professional figures such as doctor, nutritionist or dietician, whose intervention is necessary for the prescription and composition of CUSTOMIZED food therapies.

High triglycerides - hypertriglyceridemia

High blood triglycerides can increase the likelihood of ischemic heart disease; all dyslipidemias, especially if coexisting, favor the production of atherosclerotic plaques BUT the overall risk is the result of the interaction of all other metabolic, food and motor factors.

Triglycerides can be defined as high when they exceed 200mg / dl in plasma, to FAST; this last requirement is fundamental since, in the post-prandial hours, part of the energy molecules (above all glucose and alcohol, but also amino acids) is converted into triglycerides, which are subsequently incorporated into VLDL, which are then distributed throughout the fabric body fat. By measuring triglycerides in the blood of a healthy subject after a meal, high triglyceride values would be highlighted which, on the other hand, would NOT truly reflect the metabolic condition of the subject.

Fasting high triglycerides are caused, aggravated or related to:

Diseases or genetic predispositions (primary or familial hypertriglyceridemia - type IV and V)
Excessively caloric diet
Excessive consumption of alcoholic beverages
Overly abundant meals
Insufficiency of physical and motor activity
Glycemic loads too high
Excessive consumption of carbohydrates
Obesity
Type 2 diabetes mellitus
Nephrotic syndrome
Kidney failure
Taking steroid drugs (cortisone)

On the other hand, high triglycerides can be reduced by a good supply of essential polyunsaturated fatty acids of the ω3 type and also by a correct intake of dietary fiber, a nutritional component frequently neglected by those suffering from hypertriglyceridemia due to diet.

Diet for high triglycerides

From what has been explained so far, it can be deduced that the diet to reduce high blood triglycerides should be:

IPOcalorica SE in the presence of overweight / obesity - Normocalorica if in normal weight conditions
FREE of alcohol
MULTI-fractioned in meals
With a percentage of carbohydrates which, if consumed in excess, must reach the lower limit of a balanced diet
Composed of foods with low glycemic index and insulin
Compensated by the right amount of physical activity.

Dietary supplements useful for high triglycerides

The only supplement useful for reducing high triglycerides in the blood is that based on essential fatty acids ω3 EPA and DHA (better if deriving from Krill Oil). Obviously, the use of this kind of product WITHOUT a correct nutritional intervention and physical motor activity would have no therapeutic effect RESOLUTIVE, even if the efficacy of the treatment should be properly evaluated based on the entity of the hypertriglyceridemia initially found. Assuming a balanced diet in itself, the recommended dose of essential fatty acids ω ‰ 3 EPA and DHA could be 1-2.5 g per day.
