About a year ago I had a blood test. My triglycerides were through the roof, almost 950. My blood was tinted yellow. I don't drink much, maybe on average 4 drinks a week. I did consume a fair amount of carbohydrates. I don't recollect at this point what percentage. My doctor wanted to prescribe a statin. I am only in my early 50's. I am not ready to get on the drug train! He gave me 3 months to see what a change in diet would do. I cut carbs out almost completely and 3 months later my triglycerides were under 100. So, I consider myself a good example of what a change in diet can accomplish!

It was dumb on my part to have so much right before my blood work. I immediately suspected it and requested another blood test in 3 weeks. I stopped a lot of the ice cream, soda, bread and pasta and then took my blood work test. My triglycerides came in at 76! I'm a believer.

@@lucylu9792 -- Some things have no cure. More important is what causes cancers, and most of them are caused by toxins in the environment (e.g., cigarette smoke, radioactive materials, etc.) so avoiding those is your best bet. I do know that tumors don't do very well on a keto or carnivore diet since they don't consume ketones, so that will probably help to some extent. But not all cancers are identical, and sometimes there's no known reason for why it occurs to a specific person. What I do know is that I don't consider poisoning myself with chemo and ruining the quality of my life just so I MIGHT live an extra couple of months to be "curing" anything, so I wouldn't go through that myself. If you want to, that's your choice though--more power to you. Just know that an industry that relies on you being sick in order to make money is disincentivized from seeking for and providing a real cure to you.

@The Complaining Chavnel I agree with both of your statements. I think there are MANY people who would like to be able to afford to only shop locally, only eat organic, free-range, pasture-fed, lightly killed, foods BUT, when they get to the grocery store and see the PRICES of meat, fish, produce, etc…they realize that they will be paying, in many instances, DOUBLE for the healthier products. I’m lucky to live close to a big-name, Midwest chain of stores that have “market district” attached to the end of their name. They have MANY options for organic produce but, yesterday I went to gather ingredients for a pasta salad and I looked at the fresh cauliflower-“ regular” cauliflower was 2.59 per head, organic was 4.49 per head. When you are caring for an elderly parent and “subsidizing” two children who are both college students, price differences like that end-up breaking the bank. I used to have an enormous garden and I harvested fresh produce every year and grew anything you can think of (that grows in my climate zone) I had a dozen free-range chickens that would lay delicious and organic eggs-that ate only organically grown food. I don’t have the time or money to do that any longer. I had to move to a different house in a different neighborhood to care for my mother and my kids-who are adults but still like dad’s home-cooking!” Lol. Many people, like ME can not afford the money or the time to do the organic stuff anymore. I had 4 heirloom apple trees, black and red raspberries and saved seed from year to year so I didn’t even need to pay for a packet of seeds-all my plants were open-pollinated varieties. Anyone who garden’s seriously, knows how much work that is. I loved the work but I’m pushing 60 and I work full time and the new neighborhood is nice but it’s not nearly as conducive to big-time “urban gardening. I’m lucky to have the options at least, to pay the price for organic if I want and can afford it, but how do people that live in area’s without the selection of grocery stores and without a means for getting to other stores supposed to deal with it? Sorry. That was way too long. ✌🏼

THIS VIDEO RIGHT HERE got me into my Carnivore path and on the road to fixing my decades-long high triglycerides and cholesterol conditions. Found the video as I was laying in a hospital bed, recovering from L1 corpectomy and T12-L2 fusion brought on by a compression fracture caused by a single plasmacytoma around the L1 vertebrae. The VA doctors always said exactly the same thing, that it was hereditary and prescribed Lopid (had a really severe reaction to it) and then later fenofibrates and Omega3 supplements which did not help much. They suggested to limit my fat and alcohol intake and to exercise more, which I did, but NEVER mentioned lowering my carb/sugar intake which it wasn't that high, or so I thought. Thank you Dr. Berry! 100+ days in Carnivore and those conditions are now gone, my surgery recovery have been very fast, lost a few pounds (wasn't obese to begin with but welcomed) and hopefully, will keep future tumors from developing.

I have been doing a ketovore diet for almost a year now. After 7 months on the diet, my triglycerides dropped from 797 to 349. Obviously still very high, my doctor insisted the diet isn't working and that I am at high risk of a heart attack or stroke (especially given family history). She wants to put me on a pill, but I pleaded with her to let me go a little longer on the diet and see if the number comes down. All my other lab numbers were normal, including my A1C and glucose levels (I am..or was..a type 2 diabetic). I do not eat sweets, don't drink, and avoid carbs as much as possible. I am typically consuming under 50 carbs a day and I do a 16 hour fast each day. This is the only "diet" I've ever been on where I'm not starving all the time. Thanks for all you do Dr. Berry!

Wife thought I was having a heart attack because I was ashy and grey, rushed me to the ER. When I first arrived they kept drawing blood and telling me the machine did not like my blood, turned out my Triglycerides were off the chart along with my Lipase, and my pancreas was swollen. My blood looked like a purple milkshake. Then they started asking me how much I drank every day (I don't had not had a drink in months just a lot of McDs) 2 days later after having spent 18 hours in ICU on Insulin drip I got out and found food jeezus never going back. The last 2 days in the hospital they kept trying to feed me fruit, fruit juice, artificially sweetened pudding and jello. I said no just beef broth and eggs and bacon. No one in the place would believe me when I said I had been eating too much sugar and carbohydrates, they would have given me toast and jam if I let them.

I'm 48yo was recently diagnosed with high triglycerides. My doctor said it could damage my pancreas and want to put me on meds along with diet and exercise... I came here to know what to eat and drink because I'm not a meat and fat eater. I just didn't understand where this was coming from..after watching your video, and I realized it was my love for pastries, high carbs food, all freezy slushy smoothies... THANK YOU, DOC!

Thanks for this infomation. My trigy level is at 155. I stopped drinking 15 years ago. My HGB A1C was 6.8%. However, I do attribute this sugar spike to taking Rosuvastatin which I have now stopped. My doctor was asking me to go on statins ( with a cholesterol of about 220 at age 71 ) and about a month ago I did start and now with this spike in the A1C I have stopped the statin & will follow your leads. Thanks !!

Doc. You present clear facts that make sense and have given me hope. Thank You so much! Got tested today because of mild chest pain (ECG Normal) I'm 54, have a bad family history (male family members had lots of heart attacks in their 50's and 60's) and am sitting at around 680. I was even a vegan for a while and never went below 350... I don't really understand because I'm only 5 KG's overweight & I haven't eaten high amounts of processed foods or bad carbs in the last few years, but perhaps I'm more sensitive to smaller amounts than most as you suggest, so will cut down on fruit to 1 pc a day and total carbs to 50. Hopefully still have a chance to turn things around. Will take immediate action.

Contrary to what most believe - vegan is not the best diet. It tends to be heavy in carbs. Carbs cause the liver to create cholesterol and then they have health issues. Many of my vegan friends are on statins. I eat meat in moderation and am fine. We are all in our 50s.

I have learned from your video that my increase in TG level is due to high carb diet, weight gain and cortisone injections. No other doctor has educated me on the ways to decrease TG or the long term effects of high TG! I am making some changes ( losing weight, Exercising , eating healthy/low carb diet, taking niacin and omega 3) and finally feel I can have control over my own health!

Interesting! I don't have high triglycerides and don't know of anyone I know that has told me they do, but I am terribly curious and love to learn. They started my mom on statins which I objected to and she then refused. That was decades ago. She turned 102 in December and goes to church with me on Sundays. Great grandma fell off the step ladder washing the windows on her house at 102 but was nothing but black and blue, and lived in her own house taking doing the cooking for her daughters whose husbands had died, until they didn't wake up from smelling breakfast one morning and found her dead at 104 for no apparent reason. She wasn't on anything either, and her only problem was hearing if she couldn't see your lips. Relatives always ask my opinion and all I do make sure it is science that is driving it, and if there is another way other than pills. Thank you for posting.

I GREATLY appreciate the info you provide on your channel. Earlier this year, my cardiologist called to tell me my lab results showed my triglycerides were elevated and greater than 400, She prescribed a statin. Within a short time period after beginning the medication, my right shoulder and left hip ached so badly it interrupted my sleep. In order to find the root cause, I decided to discontinue my medication and began eating strict keto, in conjunction with IF. Approximately six weeks after changing my lifestyle, my new labs revealed the combination of keto & IF, as well as total abstinence from alcohol, lowered my triglycerides from >400 to 128. The quick impact was startling and more than I hoped for. Great medical advice. Thank you for caring
