Some of my clients still worry that any meat, whether it is lean or not, will raise their cholesterol including their triglycerides and lead to heart disease.

I reassure them that a lean-meat, lower-carbohydrate meal plan where carbohydrate composes less than 50 percent of total daily calories would typically reduce their triglyceride levels. I reinforce with them that I am not talking three steaks a day here but lean meats such as chicken, turkey, fish and yes even eggs.
