The wiki on triglycerides (link) is pretty interesting. I noted that high trigs can cause pancreatitis - that would be something to avoid. There's some tips about avoiding High Fructose Corn Syrup and a bunch of other tid-bits too.

I'm focused on improving my lipid panel too. My trig was 224 last July, getting a new test next week to see where I'm at now. I should be much lower now from all the exercise and cutting back on alcohol. We shall see.
