Omega-3 fatty acids can help lower triglyceride levels significantly. This fat is found in fish, such as salmon, sardines, mackerel, tuna, and tilapia. Try to eat fatty fish at least twice a week. Omega-3 fatty acids are also found in walnuts, flax seeds, canola oil, and foods made with soy. Fish oil or omega-3 supplements are also available and may be an excellent addition to your care regimen. A diet high in vegetables and fruits can help lower triglyceride levels.
All foods should be taken in moderation. During your diet to lower triglycerides be sure to avoid sweets and to control the amount of carbohydrates you eat (starchy foods such as flour, bread, potatoes). Finally remember to have fun. You have a choice.
