I have Celiac as well, which I think actually has a connection. I am trying to cut out more carbs bc that seems to affect me a lot.

Have a great day folks.

It is going to sound a bit strange, but after I had my heart attack one of my nurse's recommended peanut butter as a way to lower my triglycerides. I eat a half a peanut butter sandwich 5 days a week for breakfast, and my levels are normal, and I no longer take pills. I read something about it later when I did some research, but I don't have a copy anymore. You could probably look it up on-line by googling "triglycerides and peanut butter".

It could help, but remember I'm no Doctor!
