(Page 2)
Simple Dietary Changes Can Help Lower Triglycerides
To bring down your triglycerides, try replacing sweets and alcohol with these healthier substitutes.
What if these changes don't help you lower your triglycerides?
Sometimes, more changes to your diet and lifestyle are recommended. Your doctor may suggest that you work with other medical professionals (such as a registered dietitian or clinical health educator). If diet and lifestyle changes don’t improve your triglycerides, medications may be prescribed.
