The dietary principles for high triglycerides are summarized as: "four lows and one high", that is, "low calories, low cholesterol, low fat, low sugar, and high fiber".

1. Reduce fat intake.

Excessive saturated fatty acids can increase triglycerides, accelerate blood coagulation, and promote thrombosis. Unsaturated fatty acids can make the fatty acids in the blood develop in a healthy direction, reduce platelet aggregation, and increase the anti-blood coagulation effect. Can reduce blood viscosity. Therefore, it is recommended to eat more marine fish to protect the cardiovascular system and reduce blood lipids. When cooking, vegetable oil should be used.

2. Limit cholesterol intake.

Cholesterol is an essential substance for the human body, but excessive intake can be very harmful. Phytosterols exist in rice, wheat, corn, rapeseed and other plants. Phytosterols are free in vegetable oils and can indeed lower cholesterol. Stigasterol in soybeans has a significant effect on lowering blood lipids. It is recommended to eat more soy products.

3. Supply sufficient protein.

Patients with high triglycerides should also note that the source of protein is very important. They should choose foods rich in high-quality protein, and the intake of plant protein should be above 50%.

4. Reduce carbohydrate intake appropriately.

Don’t eat too much sugar and sweets, as sugar can be converted into triglycerides. Each meal should be seven to eight minutes full. You should eat more whole grains, such as millet, oats, beans and other foods. These foods are high in fiber and have the effect of lowering blood lipids.

5. Eat more foods rich in vitamins, inorganic salts and fiber. You should eat more fresh fruits and vegetables. They contain vitamin C, more inorganic salts and fiber, which can lower triglycerides and promote the excretion of cholesterol.
