There is no doubt in my mind that both triglycerides and cholesterol are hereditary.
The reason I say this is because I have been told from age 50 on (when we first started paying attention) that mine compared to a 25-year-old athlete.
They ran some tests during the A-Fib and discovered I have very minimal blockage.
I have high BP and had a bout with A-Fib 15 years ago, so it's not like I'm in perfect health.
I joked with a nurse once when she commented on some of my tests. She asked if I followed any special diet. I replied that I tried to have sausage at least five times a week... that is not far from the truth.
So in my mind, this all tells me it has to be hereditary.
I think that many more people inherit their diets and lifestyles than what numbers their physical bodies can display.
My trigs were very high when I was eating loads of sugar, but are very low when I'm a sugar free carnivore. |
