FALSE. A raw vegan diet that is low in B12 is the problem.

Kristina's elevated TG is caused by either not being in a fasting state or low b12, since she doesn't take b12 (as the other study stated)

It is not proven and I have given you actual facts that have disproved it.

High TG is caused by poor diet and cooked food and maybe low b12, not high sugar diet.

Due to your bias, you are ignoring facts to the contrary of your position such as harley's blood tests, my blood tests and the study itself.

It's rather pointless to engage in conversation with you when you so clearly ignore data the debunks your view.

correct me if I am wrong regarding the type of test it was, but unless it was a urinary mma, it's meaningless.

because he eats more than 60% carbs .

do you even read what I post? the studies do not say only raw food causes problems with TG

funny that no matter how many times I tell you that harley's tests were normal, you just can't seem to get it. of course that's because it blows your theory that you have invested so much in
