Ehh... I’d be careful labeling triglycerides as evil. They are literally the fuel your brain uses for all its metabolic processing. Exceptionally high levels of triglycerides are not good, but classifying them as a killer is misguided. Everything in the body is there for a reason. It’s a balancing act.

Jeeze, now you got me reading about having triglycerides that are too low, but man, they are CLUELESS. They blame low triglycerides on not eating enough fat, when it’s CARBS that raise triglyceride levels!!!
But I guess you’re right in that triglycerides that are super-low, below 40, indicate some other, serious condition, exists. So it could be a symptom to look more closely at. Personally, I’m down to 48 (’normal’ is considered below 150) by avoiding most, but not all carbs (I’m probably not even in Ketosis), and so I eat a ton of fat. All other labs are perfect.
