low saturated fat oils
low saturated fat oils
The best oil for high triglycerides is a concentrated omega-3 oil providing EPA and DHA, with an evidence-informed target of about 2 g combined EPA+DHA daily under professional guidance. Fish oil is the most common option, while algal oil offers a plant-based alternative and krill oil typically provides less EPA+DHA per capsule. Among heart-healthy oils, choose extra-virgin olive oil, avocado oil, and high-oleic canola or sunflower oil as low saturated fat oils for cooking and dressings. Triglyceride-lowering fats work best alongside fewer refined carbohydrates and sugary drinks, limited alcohol, increased fiber, regular exercise, and weight management.
