"I do not prescribe or treat. I state what I do.” -Ann Le Master
Cholesterol, triglycerides, and blood sugar is a three-way relationship that can make or break your health.
Cholesterol is a waxy substance that your body makes in the liver and uses to help make cell walls, vitamins, and other hormones. The type of cholesterol you eat has a big effect on your heart health: LDL (bad) cholesterol can clog arteries, while HDL (good) cholesterol helps remove it.
Triglycerides are lipoproteins that store excess calories from your diet. They are found in the bloodstream and are used by cells as an energy source. High levels of triglycerides can lead to heart disease, stroke, and other problems.
Blood sugar levels are affected by three main factors: how much insulin is present, how much glucose is present, and how well your body responds to insulin. If these three factors are out of balance, it can lead to high blood sugar levels, which can cause other health problems.
What are the causes, symptoms, and risk factors for people with high triglycerides, cholesterol, and high blood sugar level? How do we compute our triglycerides and cholesterol ratio? What do our blood sugar numbers mean? How do insulin resistance, vitamin D, Zinc, and medications affect our blood sugar levels? What is the role of nutrition in optimizing our health?
Listen in as Ann answers these questions and shares natural support strategies that she found effective in managing high triglyceride levels. How effective? Well, she moved from 165 to 50 in just three months!
