Managing triglycerides is crucial if you want to not have a heart attack or other forms of heart disease.
This is because triglycerides occur in the bloodstream as something called VLDL particles that interact with LDL particles, causing them to become triglyceride-enriched, a process that causes small LDL particles to form. Recall that small LDL particles are a potent cause of heart disease.
By keeping triglycerides at 60 mg/dl, you have minimized or eliminated small LDL particles and thereby heart disease risk.
The post Why we keep triglycerides at 60 mg/dl or less appeared first on Dr. William Davis.
