    A much better way to reduce triglycerides is to lower carbohydrate intake since carbohydrates in the form of sugars turn into triglycerides in the liver. It's simple biochemistry. Saturated fats won't increase triglycerides when you take away the high carb foods, and will in fact increase HDL cholesterol. No need for statin drugs at all.
