Re: Which foods contain triglyceriders

steven,

Triglycerides are the way that fats nearly always exist in nature. They are comprised of 3 fat molecules chains held at one end by a sugar-alcolol molecule (glycerol.)

So anythig you eat that has any fat has triglycerides. The body can also manufacture triglycerides very easily from any excess of carbohydrates or proteins. It's what body fat is made of.
