Do you have high triglycerides? What have you done to bring them down? ⬇️

[@Billy33753]

I’ve tried exercising

[@petju7]

I used to, but when I stopped snacking, started IF, and exercised more it drastically dropped. My ldl is still high and my hdl is still low. So it's a work in progress

[@gorgev9341]

Good morning gorgeous from Arizona 🇺🇸 6years keto and the last year carnivore but I am extremely hungry and I eat over 3 pound of meat plus butter and nothing works

[@claudia5908]

Hi Kait! Thank you for another great video! My triglycerides was 76 this last time. It went up a little but still below the recommended levels. I’ve been following you for some time. The information you share helped me figure out how to lower it! I appreciate all you do! 💕

[@peggykey5570]

Cut sugar and exercise, love weights and my total gym

[@mrbigg7255]

Triglycerides down from 721 to 126. Doctor says that triglyceride levels are reflective of what you eat. I said that all the bacon, cheese burgers fried in butter, cheese, etc. all really helped in lowering my triglycerides. He just kept staring at me. I said, “come on, you know it’s the sugar that raises that.” He agreed that it is the sugar.

[@SatumainenOlento]

🤣🤣🤣

[@jessegentry9699]

I listen and follow your wonderful advice for better health. I am 73 and have had 1 common cold in 35 years and always looking for someone for even better health, then I met your videos. Thanks for the help.

[@marvindiamonjr.9631]

I get my triglycerides checked during my annual checkup. They've dropped dramatically over my past two checkups. Avocadoes and MCT oil are two of my favorite secret weapons. Great video, Kait!

[@HealthCoachKait]

👏👏

[@UnknownUser-sc6jx]

Fish oil helps, marine triglycerides lowers our own triglycerides and reduces blood clotting a risk factor for heart disease.

[@binda33]

I've been following a low carb diet (increasing my protein and fat intake) and exercising over the last year. Wasn't even trying to lower my cholesterol. Dr says my cholesterol levels have been dropping though. Colour me surprised.

[@200Nora]

My HDL and triglycerides have always been good. On keto, they are even better 90-47. However my LDL is gone up to 200. I am not worried because even in my 20s it was elevated to at least 160 and sometimes 170. I am 67 now; if my dr was right, I should have been buried from CVD long time ago. I just keep refusing the famous statins over and over. Ahhh! That's the cholesterol story of my life. Pre diabetes almost got me down, but it is already taken care of with keto and IF. Good explanation and information Thanks!

[@HealthCoachKait]

👏👏

[@UnknownUser-sc6jx]

My total cholesterol is 278. HDL 90. LDL 177. Triglycerides 52. And my blood pressure is 90 over 60. A1C of 4.9 and a fasted blood glucose of 70 mg/dl. I don't feel worried about LDL and no one else should worry about their LDL on a low carbohydrate, keto or carnivorous diet. Maintaining good glucose control, having a high level of omega 3 fatty acids, staying active and controlling stress are all more important then LDL

[@dawncarter2759]

i just had mine checked Thursday, NP is trying to get me too take a statin, I won't do it. Cholesterol is at 249, triglycerides are at 85, HDL is at 51

[@jimmymalone3494]

Hi Kait great video i enjoyed thank you for sharing with us.I hope you have a great week.

[@mamabakstis6882]

Thank you for what you do✌️

[@User8vfjhejf]

Used to have Triglycerides of 1361...3 months later, it's at 99 I lost 30 pounds and ate everything on the list

[@DanEngell]

Wow! ...and I thought I was rockin' going from 278 down to 69 (Trigs). Keep up the great work!

[@rwvidal]

Love the advice. Thank you ! I saw another video (different source) that recommends MCT oil vs Coconut in that MCT Oil has lower-carbon chains (less lauric acid). Could you talk more about it in a future cast? Big into avocados, salmon, and grass-fed butter....

[@HealthCoachKait]

The fat in coconut oil is 50% MCTs so it’s still a good option! But not as potent ❤️

[@sidallen685]

Thanks Kait ❤

[@penniroyal4398]

I eat 1 whole avocado everyday! It’s one of my favorite fruits! As far as MCT oil I’ve been using it for about 6 years. I love it in my coffee ☕️ these videos are a boost for daily inspiration to keep up on the diet to get healthier!

[@ralphkassing6821]

My triglycerides have dropped 75% since going keto with intermittent fasting. I eat OMAD but when I eat, it’s 3-5 thousand calories and I’m maintaining weight loss and energy level because I eat 2/3 fat and 1/3 protein. The only carbs I eat on a regular basis is a leafy green salad with dressing I make myself. It seems to be working great for me.

[@melihatopic7124]

Great , thank you. I eat mostly of those ❤

[@jessegentry9699]

Oh yes, the red light therapy works great thanks to you and a great discount. More people should think on getting one.

[@HealthCoachKait]

So glad you love it!

[@23merlino]

i find your channel extremely usefull in presenting important information in an easy to digest (pun intended 🙂) format... being on youtube etc. you have an international audience which is i why i would like to suggest you also include units of measurement used in other parts of the world and not just in the usa... ie; in the case of this video mmo/l and not just mg/dl... thankyou... 🙂

[@sirdarklust]

Hey! Hi! Out of the five, I use two - garlic and MCT oil. My cholesterol levels are perfect, so not an issue for me. Take it easy.

[@HealthCoachKait]

👏👏

[@pamelabryant689]

Avocados. I love them. Last triglyceride check was 2/23. Level at 94 mg/fl. I have high cholesterol. We’ve managed to get my total to 209, Hdl 79, LDL 114. My LDL has been as high as 130. I can’t seem to manage it without medication.

[@kellykent131]

Hi Kait. I love avocado. I’ve be trying to eat more of it. You mentioned avocado contains fiber. How much fiber do you recommend in your diet for weight loss and lowering triglycerides? Thanks

[@olhemi1]

Hi Kait, my Cholesterol was good in January at my check up

[@HealthCoachKait]

👏👏

[@thewryreport]

Thanks Kate, love your videos. Do you have an ButcherCrowd alternative for those of us in Canada? Thanks! I haven't had my cholesterol, tryglicerides checked in years (despite asking my Dr for it) since the gov't only pays for it every 5 years. I think I'm due to qualify at the end of this year, so eager to find out my #!

[@HealthCoachKait]

truLOCAL!

[@Jodysfunstuff]

My Triglycerides 1.89 Feb23. I have Hashimotos. Love salmon, avocados, avoided coconut oil because my risk ratio is 3.88. Which is down from the previous test. I’ve cut back on red meat and dairy because it went up when I was eating more animal products trying to increase my ferritin.

[@stormygirl1704]

Most Drs don’t follow this 😞 I refuse statins. The PA said “fat is fat” so… I do low carb and have reversed my type 2. A1c is 5.5 now. Lost 51 pounds. It was eliminating refined sugar and processed foods that helped my body, not a high protein/fat diet.

[@lisakrimmel3655]

I commented on your video 2 weeks ago. Followed your advice and got the Homa-IR test. Found out my glucose is low but high on B12. I don’t drink alcohol and don’t take B12 supplement. Any advice?

[@user-ko6kv4eo6n]

Can you do a video about blood pressrue and show how to measure it at home, since it is blood opressure awareness month

[@Tgurl1010]

You're doing a great job Kait. My A1C level is 5.7. It is okay to consume Avocado 🥑???

[@HealthCoachKait]

Yes! Avocado is great!

[@muffycrosswire2757]

Good video

[@SimplyAnn_]

The way Kait says 'Avahcahdos' 😄

[@mabajaki5555]

Is avocado cold pressed oil same good as avocado? I don't eat avocado, but I add one spoon of avocado cold pressed oil to my vegetables every day. I like garlic too, but I can't eat it because of smell (and it's my fasting period when I'm at home and not around other people). Thanks.

[@FeralCoot]

Thanks Kait you cleared up the confusion about MCT oil for me. My triglycerides went up slightly during a period of illness and I had dropped my guard diet wise. It was great to get an advanced lipid profile which basically reflected what was going on. My LDL small particle was high but that reflected the triglyceride increase. I was still in the optimal range but stress, lack of sleep, no exercise for 6 months, and consumption of low grade carbs threw me out. It was plain to see, however my doctor still looked at the grand total and declared statins. I have resisted again. Didn't know you were based in Oz and yes the farmed fish is plentiful as are the wild you just have to find a trusted fish monger or invest in a fishing rod. Have a great weekend!

[@rumbeach375]

Interesting did not know that about omega 3s.

[@thehungergames8918]

Everything tastes better with Butter 🤤😋

[@patwarrren2346]

I have a question? I have been on conivore for a month. I have been getting nausous now for a few days? Is this normal? Help

I love fasting I been doing intermittent fasting since 5 years now

[@rosemarynewell6634]

What about canned salmon

[@esfanintan]

Furthermore, the article that you show with the headline “ why you should no longer worry about cholesterol in food” further down in the article say that “ the US dietary Guidelines call for a daily cholesterol limit of 300 mg”. If the dietary cholesterol was no issue They wouldn’t put a limit on it. And at the conclusion of the article is says “The American Heart Association recommends limiting dietary saturated fat and intake and focusing more on eating fruits, veggies, whole grains, lean animal protein or plant protein source.

[@donnysingh6389]

Hi Coach Kait... I have subclinical Cushing's syndrome... chronic elevated cortisol... which leads to skinny fat... visceral fat, fatty liver, elevated sugar and insulin, low testosterone and difficulty building muscle... what should I do ?

[@HealthCoachKait]

While I can’t give medical advice, all of those issues stem from chronic high insulin. So anything you can do to bring it down will help ❤️ Keeping your blood sugar stable should be your focus and you will see improvements. Here are some tips to get you started: kzbin.info/www/bejne/fnqwaH-fpZV4mdU

[@gorgev9341]

Good morning to you gorgeous from Arizona 🇺🇸 have a great day IAM doing keto 6 years today last year carnivore but I am extremely hungry very hungry what can I do?

[@HealthCoachKait]

How much protein are you eating?

[@DeKalbGal]

A few years ago the Dr told me I had borderline diabetes. I started exercising, watching my diet and I kept my numbers low for a long time. Eventually they started going up. I asked my Dr to change the medicine or give me a bigger dose. She said that I was ok because my A1C was under 7, it didn't matter that I wanted to keep it down. My Dr left and I got a new one. Same dialogue, no better med and the numbers up. That Dr left and I got a 3° Dr with the same result. It didn't matter that I told them my A1C went from 5.3 to 5.7 to 6.2 and now 6.5. They say "wait until 7". If it was cancer they'd say "we'll start the treatment when it gets metastasized". I don't want to need insulin and end with a pump up my a$$ but my Drs have other plans 🤨

[@ronforrestjr2493]

Can we eat garlic raw? also can you make a detailed video about triglycerides, it's causes and how to lower it. Thanks for sharing

[@HealthCoachKait]

I have a few!

[@esfanintan]

The is a very good study that separate people in two group group one ate food with dietary cholesterol and group two ate food devoid of dietary cholesterol. The blood cholesterol of the group 1 increased while the second group blood cholesterol decreased. Then they switched the grips food and this time the group one cholesterol decreased while group 2 cholesterol increased. This is exactly the opposite of what you claim.

[@DaHeetFiveOh]

I watched your video where you recommended oysters. I have a couple of questions. Should they be eaten raw for maximum benefit? And what about canned, smoked oysters? Any pros or cons? I just discovered your channel, and feel like I'm getting good information. I do need help.... I'm an overweight Diabetes patient. Recently my insulin resistance has gone up sharply. I am a 66 year old male. Any help would be appreciated.

[@HealthCoachKait]

Any are good! Just make sure tinned ones aren’t in vegetable oil ❤️

Did you watch the video? LDL and total are irrelevant if trigs and HDL are good.

[@andreamaher2598]

Had my blood work done at the end of last year,my triglycerides were 1.4 ( im in Canada) is that a bad level?

1.4 is good! Anything below 1.7 is ideal 😃

[@sandydavies7008]

That is very common on low-carb lifestyles. It is fine. You're body is fat-burning instead of sugar burning for energy. Look up the "lipid energy model" by Dave Feldman. It is nothing to worry about.

[@HealthCoachKait]

Hi Barbara 🥰

[@houserdiane]

Tis a bit confusing I might add..😂😊. I have also come to realize I simply cannot eat/diet the way I did in the 1980’s and beyond. Also, I do believe the immune system changes every seven to ten years. During the pandemic lockdown, I went “down to the wire.” I eliminated beef, chicken, and obvious starchy carbs mostly. I did do some IF at least twice a week. Some dairy products I kept but didn’t eat them regularly. Fish, eggs/egg whites, and green vegetables I kept. Avocados were a staple. I ate them like there was no tomorrow and other low glycemic fruits. I was able to keep this up for a year and a few months. I lost about ten pounds. Saw my doctor and he told me my triglycerides had gone down as well. Along with that, my nails started to split, peel, and break. Not fun. Fast forward - I added the chicken and beef back in my diet and consumed them regularly. Kept the avocados etc., went to my doctor recently and guess what - my triglycerides were up yet again. In fact, he’s been on me for well over four years to take a statin. How about NO! Once again, I’ll not be consuming beef and chicken regularly. Once a week or every other? Not sure how I’ll go about this BUT I do have a plan. It wouldn’t surprise me if I have a histamine issue. That’s what took me to my doctor recently in the first place. The avocados are high histamine. I’m currently trying to follow a low histamine eating plan. The itching and hives are no joke by the way. (I have a referral to see an allergist.)

[@insertmyidentityhere]

Um no, high triglycerides come from too much sugar, not from eating beef & chk lol

[@houserdiane]

@@insertmyidentityhere … I have no idea why my numbers went up yet again. BTW - I wasn’t eating junk as in sugars etc.. cookies, cakes, pastries, etc..if that’s what you are referring to. High glycemic foods aren’t welcome nor is gluten. The lectins cause problems. Also, I’m in my late 60’s. Two immediate family members had high triglycerides and were on meds for it. Both were long time smokers and are now deceased. I’m not a smoker. Not on your life. No thank you.

[@karahamil3657]

That study you quoted in the beginning about those on meds to lower LDL was from 2009… any recent studies?

[@leemanwrong]

It would have been good to clarify that theres is no such thing as ldl cholesterol, you have cholesterol and then you have ldl that transports the cholesterol.
