>triglycerides increase

My wife's family tends to run high on triglycerides and LDL cholesterol.  Recently she had a blood panel and her numbers were higher than they should have been.  The doctor gave her the usual advice  which was cut out the fried food and exercise more -- not very permanent to her because she hardly ever eats fried food and she gets plenty of daily activity.

I convinced her to try modifying her diet to bestially eat the way I've been eating for years.  She cut out grain and sugar.  She didn't go very high fat, but wasn't avoiding it ether.  She basically eat meat, veggies and fruit.  After just a month her triglycerides and LDL were much improved.  To be clear, this was not a ketogenic diet, but rather a diet void of grain and sugar; basically a diet free of any refined food*.


_{* she would have a small amount of dark chocolate as a treat at the end of the day, so not entirely free}
