Any connection between diabetes and triglyceride levels?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Many: In diabetes since you cannot metabolize( burn) glucose for energy you try to get it from fat (by way of triglycerides) and protein. Diabetes type 2 is also associated with the metabolic syndrome (high triglycerides and low HDL cholesterol).
