Very high triglycerides (878)... diet advice? I'm male, 32, vegetarian, 5'10", 176 lbs. I recently got some blood levels checked, and apart from slightly-higher-than-average LDL and slightly-lower-than-average HDL, my triglycerides value is 878 (eight hundred and seventy eight). That's pretty high, it seems. Now: 1. I used to average 10 drinks a week; it's down to three. 2. I used to smoke 40 a day; I've quit. 3. I used to get zero exercise; I now walk an hour a day. I'll get on to more serious exercise when I can, but what should I be doing about my diet? I'm vegetarian, but I'd eat 300 grams of cheese as part of breakfast every once in a while (Brie, in case you're wondering!), or use about 80 grams of butter on my bread. Things like that... But there's this whole thing about what to avoid: alcohol, or fat, or carbohydrates, or sugar?? I'm lost! Until I had this checkup, I'd never thought about diet... Please help! I've been prescribed medication, and given my lifestyle changes, how long would it take for the TG to come down?

Need help with my husbands diet? My husband went to the doctor today and he has to go on a very strict diet. His cholesterol is 154, bit his triglycerides are over 650 and his blood sugar was at 122.

I have been doing research online and so far have come up with no alcohol, sugary foods, white food products (pastas, breads), limit butter and whole milk, no deep fried foods, and cut red meats to minimal. The good foods I came up with are more fruits and vegetables, poultry and fish (but not fried), dark green leafy vegetables, brown rice, wheat breads and pastas, oats, barley, and use extra virgin olive oil instead of butter. Does this sound like a good menu? Is there something else I should add to either the good or bad foods? To B B, I try to pay attention but he is stubborn and wouldn't listen to me until today. If I made something he didn't want he simply wouldn't eat it. Monetspiccaso, my husband hasn't drank much since we found out we were going to have our son (about 2 years now), but thank you very much for your concern about his alcohol intake. Klb_72, thanks for the menu idea.
