Inspiration for the Post

Subscribers reading my content related to metabolic health have shown interest in understanding the role of triglycerides in our health and how we can improve our lipid profile.

It appears that some readers confuse triglycerides with cholesterol, which I introduce in a previous article. Therefore, one of my goals is to add clarity to these two critical lipids for our metabolic health.
