There are several lifestyle changes you can make to help maintain healthier blood pressure. In this article, we'll cover some common ways for regulating Triglyceride Levels and ensuring you maintain healthy blood pressure levels.
Almost half (47%) of US adults have high blood pressure. Triglycerides are a type of fat found in the blood, and if your triglycerides levels are too high, it can cause high blood pressure.
Triglycerides are a type of fat. You get them from the food we eat, and they are carried around the body by your blood.
Your body converts any excess calories you consume into triglycerides, which it then stores in your fat cells. You will later use this as an energy source to keep your body functioning.
If you don't need those triglycerides as energy later (usually because you eat more calories than you are burning), you will store them as fat. This can lead to an increased risk of high blood pressure and heart disease.
Fortunately, there are plenty of ways to naturally reduce the triglyceride levels in your blood. Some simple diet and lifestyle changes can help you lead an easier and healthier life.
Try some of these changes if you want to reduce your triglyceride levels:
Overeating is the leading cause of high triglyceride levels. If you manage your weight, you will be less likely to put on fat.
Managing your weight means consuming the same amount of calories as you burn. You can use a calorie calculator to determine how many calories your body requires to function. You can then add any calories you burn through exercise.
If you want to maintain a certain weight, keep the number of calories you burn and consume the same. If you're going to lose weight, you'll need to use a calorie deficit. This means you eat fewer calories than you burn.
Reducing higher blood pressure can be as simple as reducing excess sugar in your diet. Many of us consume too many calories from sugar on a daily basis.
Added sugar is in many food products, and often we don't realize there's so much added sugar in everyday items. Ready meals, pre-prepared sauces, baked goods, and drinks all have high sugar levels. If you eat excess sugar, it's likely your body will turn it into triglycerides.
Reduce your sugar intake by drinking fewer sodas, eating less pre-prepared food and fast food, and skipping the sugary snacks, sweets, and chocolate.
Exercise is one of the best ways to lower your blood pressure. When you exercise regularly, it helps maintain a healthy weight and maintain healthy triglyceride levels.
Try to aim for at least 150 minutes of exercise every week. Your health will improve, but it will also boost your mood and overall happiness.
We need fat for our bodies to function efficiently. Our brains are made up of 60% fat, after all!
However, the type of fat we consume is essential. If you eat only trans fats found in meat, dairy, processed foods, fried foods, and oils, you will increase the triglycerides in your blood.
Replace processed fat and excess meat and dairy with monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fat sources. You'll find these in food like nuts, seeds, olive oil, and fatty fish.
Eating plant-based foods such as nuts and seeds will also increase the amount of fiber in your diet. Eating plenty of fiber is essential for keeping your blood pressure and triglycerides low. Fiber can help slow down the absorption of fat and sugar in your body.
Omegas can help reduce the level of triglycerides in the body. Eating at least two servings of fatty fish such as salmon or tuna a week can help increase your omega 3 levels.
You can also take omega 3 supplements and eat more flax seeds and soy products.
Natural supplements can also aid you in reducing your blood pressure.
Care for your health by taking supplements that complement your lifestyle. Vitamin D and curcumin are both great supplements associated with reducing triglyceride levels.
We all know alcohol plays havoc with our health, especially in excess. It's high in calories and has excess carbohydrates and sugar. Drinking too much can cause your body to store excess fat and therefore elevate triglyceride levels.
Try to minimize your alcohol consumption to the recommended healthy levels. This is no more than one drink per day for women and two drinks for men.
White bread, pasta, rice, and potatoes are all carbohydrates converted to sugar in your body. It's easy to overeat these foods, which will then become triglycerides that get stored as fat.
Reduce the number of refined carbohydrates in your diet, and you'll reduce your triglyceride levels. Replace white carbs with complex carbs such as brown rice, wholewheat bread, and pasta.
Now you know some specifics for how you can have healthier blood pressure, take a look at the areas of your life where you can make improvements.
There's no quick fix for maintaining a healthy level of triglycerides in the blood. You need to adopt a 360 approach to looking after your overall wellbeing.

A safe and accurate address for delivery must be provided at the time the order is placed. Once an order has shipped, SupplementRelief.com is NOT responsible for lost or stolen packages CONFIRMED BY THE CARRIER to be delivered to the address provided for the order.
Since COVID-19, and the ensuing economic challenges in the USA economy, we respectfully ask that you allow some additional time for delivery for the carriers (USPS, UPS, and FedEx). Most orders still arrive on time, or near on time, but some may run late. We make every effort to get your order packed and into the carriers hands the same day, or by the next business morning if your order came in later in the previous day after carrier pickup, but we have no control over any delays that may happen within the shipping carrier's delivery system. Please order earlier for the time being if you are time-sensitive.
Orders that contain only FirstFitness Nutrition products have a shipping fee automatically calculated based upon the actual shipping weight of the items purchased. The charge ranges from $4.95 to $14.95.
For orders with NuMedica products you may choose from the shipping options below on the Order Checkout form in the Shipping Information section on the first line that says Choose Shipping Method.
Country | Option | Schedule | Cost |
---|---|---|---|
United States | Standard | 3-6 Days | $4.95 |
United States | Priority | 2-4 Days | $9.95 |
United States | Free | 7-10 Days | $0.00 |
International | FedEx International | 4-7 Days | $79.95* |
International | GlobalPost International | 12-21 Days | $39.95* |
*International shipping costs may be higher depending upon package weight and destination. We will contact you for your approval of the additional amount if this occurs. |
SupplementRelief.com may use the email or phone number provided on your Order to call or text you regarding Order Status or to inform you of changes to the Order Policy.
When your order ships we will send you a confirmation email with the delivery tracking information.
Shipping anything these days internationally is expensive. COVID resulted in more rigorous customs import processes, and now with much higher energy prices, international shipping rates are higher.
FedEx is the most reliable and faster carrier, at least for now, but they are expensive. Our FedEx international shipping fee is a minimum of $79.95. It usually makes more sense to get several months of supply (3 months or more) in one order to minimize the shipping expense per order over time. While the added weight of additional items may increase the base shipping price by a little (usually 10-25% depending upon total weight and destination), it is usually not by very much relative to shipping an additional small order later.
We also offer a lower-cost international shipping option using GlobalPost International for $39.95. So far, they have been reliable in getting packages correctly delivered but it takes 2 - 4 times as long to get the package delivered. Packages may take longer to process in the receiving country's customs process and status updates may not be reported as quickly. Please be patient if you choose this option to save money.
Some International orders may cost more to ship depending upon weight and location. If that happens we will contact you first and get your approval for any additional charge before proceeding. International orders may also be subject to additional customs fees and duties/taxes based upon the destination country's customs import laws and policies. These fees are NOT known or included on our order form and are typically charged and collected by the shipping carrier when they are delivering the product to it's final destination once the package has cleared the destination country's customs process. It is recommended that the buyer research custom import fees for the products/services they are importing beforehand to be aware of potential, additional fees.
Our manufacturers formulate their probiotics to ensure their products retain viability until they reach the consumer. Probiotics that are recommended to be refrigerated remain so until the time of shipment, then shipped alongside an ice pack to ensure potency (Note: Ice pack will not arrive frozen, and product may not arrive cold). Orders placed on a Thursday-Sunday requiring cold shipping will not ship until the following Monday.
If your order has not been shipped yet, you can request a cancellation. Your original purchase amount will be refunded within three business days. If your order has already shipped, see Returns and Refunds.
If you want to make a change to your order, please email us as soon as possible so we can make the change before your order ships. If your order has already shipped you may incur additional shipping charges for the second shipment and the return label for any products returned.
If we have made a mistake on your order, or the product arrives in a damaged or unusable condition, we will make every reasonable effort to right the situation quickly to your satisfaction.
We accept returns subject to when the return is requested and the condition the product is returned in. All returns must first be authorized by contacting us. In your request, please let us know why you are returning the item(s). We will respond promptly with authorization, the return address, and a return shipping label if appropriate.
If your order has already shipped you can return any un-opened products within 30 days of receiving your order for a 100% refund of the price paid for the product, less the actual shipping charges we incurred to get the product to you originally and then returned, less a $10 restocking fee. Un-opened means the protective seal on the bottle or container, or the shrink-wrap on the box or kit, has not been broken and the product has not otherwise been damaged in any way. You may use the original packaging for the return or acquire your own. We will provide the return shipping label. We DO NOT accept returns for NuMedica products once the protective product seal has been broken.
Upon receipt of returned product(s), we will refund your credit card within three business days for the product(s) returned.
