HIGH TRIGLYCERIDE INFO

High triglycerides are an important substance found in our blood that can lead to metabolic syndromes. I am excited about covering triglycerides in this section of my health based website. You’ve probably heard a health physician talk about triglycerides, but by the end of this section, I will explain what they are and how to possibly break them up with oral chelation.

What Are Triglycerides?

Triglycerides are actually a type of fat found in our blood. Triglycerides are the most common type of fat in our bodies and also a major source of energy. When we eat our bodies use the calories it needs for energy and the extra calories are turned into triglycerides and stored in fat cells, for later use. An overwhelmingly high number of the adult population in the United States packs on triglycerides into pre existing fat cells, this has lead to obesity. Excess calories are stored as fat no matter if it’s fat, protein or carbohydrates. Triglycerides are important to health in moderation. High triglycerides can be part of a condition known as metabolic syndrome. Metabolic Syndrome is a combination of high blood sugar, high blood pressure, low HDL (good cholesterol), and high triglycerides.

Research indicates that metabolic syndrome increases the risk for heart disease, diabetes and a stroke. Triglycerides can be measured as part of a blood test that measures cholesterol levels. If you get a triglyceride test normal levels are below 150. High levels are 200 and above.

What Causes High Triglycerides?

-Obesity

-Kidney Disease

-Drinking a lot of Alcohol

-Poorly controlled diabetes

-Regularly eating more calories than you burn

-An under active thyroid

Certain medications may contribute to higher levels of triglycerides

-Diuretics

-Estrogen

-Steroids

-Birth control pills

-Beta-blockers

What Are Symptoms Of Triglycerides?

In most cases high triglycerides do not cause any symptoms. In other people a higher level of triglycerides have a genetic cause, this is not too common, in these cases, higher triglyceride levels may occur along with fatty deposits under the skin called xanthomas.

How Can Oral Chelation Lower Triglyceride Levels?

Chelation is derived from the word chele that means claw. Chelation is based on the observation that when a certain amino acid complex called EDTA comes into contact with certain positively charged metals and other substances such as lead, calcium, copper, zinc, magnesium, iron, plutonium and manganese it grabs them. Chelation therapy is the process of removing from the body the undesirable ionic material by the infusion, or consuming orally, of an organic compound, which has suitable chelating properties. EDTA grabs metallic cation such as calcium or lead (calcium and cholesterol can form plaque within the blood vessels) from the body and forms a compound that is excreted from the system. Oral chelation can break up plaque, which in turn can help to lower high triglyceride levels.

The chelation process is similar to unclogging a drain. When a chemical is added o our drain it dissolves the blockages. The end product of that blockage is then removed from the drain using the existing plumbing system. The chelation process works in pretty much the same manner in our bodies.
