Not entirely accurate. Triglycerides are part of highly complicated processes in the human body, but consuming a high quantity of fat alone does not translate directly to fat in the blood.
Fat in combination with carbohydrates *does* however result in higher serum triglycerides.
To start with, fats are hard to digest, and take a significant expenditure of energy. As has been established by the “meat eater” and Atkins diets, consuming mostly protein and fat, but with very little carbohydrate, will cause overweight people to actually lose weight and have lower serum cholesterol and triglycerides.
The spice cinnamon, which can come from two different plants, mostly coming from a variety of cassia plant instead of being true cinnamon, are known for stabilizing the blood sugar, which also reduces hunger, which likely explains any triglyceride lowering effects.
You guys should try this supplement which contains turmeric.
It is truly the answer to better health!
