Hi Cygal,

If you are new to the whole foods Plant-based diet, fear not, as it is quite common to have triglycerides rise when you are just starting out.

If you have not eaten any animal products for more than 6 months, then you may consider eating nothing in between meals and lowering your fat intake.

Take a look at this comparison chart, and follow the Starch-Smart plan for 3 months under the column "Starch-Smartest" and then recheck your triglycerides.

Ideal triglycerides are under 60, good levels are under 100, and normal levels are under 150.
