Does anyone pay attention to the Triglyceride/HDL ratio? I was reading a Zero Carb blog (myzerocarblife) and she mentioned this ratio as the most important one there is (for heart or artery health). She referenced this article: http://www.docsopinion.com/2014/07/...ride-hdl-ratio/
In short the ratio should be 2 or less.

I work in the financial industry and I know that the key ratio that they are interested in is your Cholesterol/HDL ratio, and they want that under 5.

Interestingly enough, I just had bloodwork done on January 8, shortly before starting back on LCHF, and so I have my numbers here. The relevant ones are:

Triglycerides 183 should be <150 (noted as high but doctor is not concerned)
HDL 40 should be >39
A1c 5.9 should be <6.0

So, my Tri/HDL ratio is 4.575, which is considerably higher than the desired. I believe I understood that the elevated blood sugar levels will also elevate the Triglyceride levels. But beyond that, I don't have a lot of knowledge. Again, to be clear, I was not eating low carb ahead of this bloodwork. I am assuming that my A1c will come down at my next blood work which will be in July.

Does anyone follow this ratio?
Will my Triglycerides come down with LCHF, reduced BG, reduced insulin, and weight loss?
Will my HDL levels elevate with LCHF and weight loss?
