What dietary changes can be made to reduce serum TGs?
Dietary changes that may reduce serum TGs include a low-fat diet (o15% total calories), reduction of mono- saccharide and disaccharide intake, reducing the total amount of dietary carbohydrates, and use of fish oils to replace some long-chain TGs. Dietary modification should be used judiciously, if at all, in individuals who are malnourished.
