JCK got a reaction from hook in High Triglycerides on a Carnivore or Keto Diet! [Video/Podcast]Interesting video. This is the first content I've seen specifically addressing rising triglycerides on carnivore. After 4 months on carnivore and 25 lbs. weight loss (205 - 180), my triglycerides more than doubled. While still low by your standard - they went from 110 - 220. My doctor is more concerned about my LDL going from 170 to 580, but I've seen more reports of this increase on carnivore than the increased triglycerides.
My kidney panel does not show cause for concern, but you've given me some interesting things to consider re: rising triglycerides and weight loss.
Thanks again for the content.

It's the same with the LDL - which is stored in your adipose tissue and gets released into the blood stream as you lose weight. This is in addition to the saturated fat you are now eating but weren't eating before. LDL goes up dramatically. But after remaining weight stable for about 6 months, it should return to baseline (which may even be your "new normal", now that your dietary habits have changed).
