Triglycerides and Insulin
Reducing elevated triglycerides often starts with addressing insulin resistance, which is linked to high triglyceride levels. While prescription medications may be necessary for significant reductions, dietary changes—particularly carbohydrate restriction—can lead to quicker improvements. Exercise plays a supportive role, especially when combining resistance and cardiovascular training to enhance overall lipid profiles.In this clip

How does insulin take glucose from the bloodstream and transfer it to cells, where mitochondria convert it to energy/ATP, as discussed in the episode "Dr. Peter Attia on Mastering Longevity – Insights on Cancer Prevention, Heart Disease, and Aging" and the clip "Glucose Regulation Insights"?
What does Peter Attia say about insulin resistance?
Is my understanding of glucose disposal correct? Glucose disposal is tied directly to blood glucose and insulin. Basically, once glucose is consumed, it gets digested quickly and enters the bloodstream. In insulin-sensitive and metabolically healthy people, the hormone insulin is released. Insulin (through a process I'm unaware of and want to know) takes the glucose from the bloodstream and transfers it to cells, where mitochondria convert it to energy/ATP.
