The National Cholesterol Education Program sets guidelines for triglyceride levels: Normal triglycerides means there are less than 150 milligrams per deciliter (mg/dL). Borderline high triglycerides = 150 to 199 mg/dL. High triglycerides = 200 to 499 mg/dL.Very high triglycerides = 500 mg/dL or higher. High triglyceride levels may lead to heart disease, especially in people with low levels of good cholesterol and high levels of bad cholesterol, and in people with type 2 diabetes.Experts disagree, though, on just how bad of an effect high triglyceride levels by themselves have on the heart.igh triglyceride levels may lead to heart disease, especially in people with low levels of good cholesterol and high levels of bad cholesterol, and in people with type 2 diabetes.

Mexican cuisine is primarily a fusion of indigenous Mesoamerican cooking with European, especially Spanish, elements added after the Spanish conquest of the Aztec Empire in the 16th century. The basic staples are native foods such as corn, beans and chili peppers.exican cooking was of course still practiced in what is now the Southwest United States after the MexicanâAmerican War, but Diana Kennedy, in her book The Cuisines of Mexico (published in 1972), drew a sharp distinction between Mexican food and Tex-Mex.
And if youâre from anywhere else, you probably donât even really know Tex-Mex, either. (Sorry guys!) So, especially for the gringos, here is our list of the top 10 Mexican dishes/foods that you MUST find and try if you ever come to visit us in Mexico City. These are some of my personal favorites, out of everything I have tried here so far.
