How can the plasma triglycerides concentration continue to be elevated despitew the very low fat diet?


Answer:
High triglycerides aren't high due to fat, they're high due to carbohydrates (simple sugars and complex sugars like carbs). A lower carb lower sugar diet will help with this. They can also be linked to diabetes so you might want to get your blood sugar tested. Increase omega 3 consumption also (with flax or fish oil or by eating more fish or nuts) and get more fiber. This will help not only with triglycerides but with general health.Drugs may be needed if a change in diet doesn't help, but you should try a low carb diet first. Genetics will always play a part in health.
Actually there is a condition famillial hypertriglycerdemia which is gentic %26 inspite of diet control one may have elevated TG. They r synthesized in liver cells from complex Carbohydrate in this condition %26 so drug treatment is essent ial.
