Does Eating Lot Of Pound Cake Raise Triglyceride?
Will eating lots of pound cake and angel food cake with crushed strawberries sweeten with stevia and sugar and being medicated with Ativan ,rednisone, and Lipitor and three glasses of wine while preparing and eating dinner raise my alt and triglyceride .?

For sure not just a lot, but even' little 'of all what you prepared will increase your triglycerides because it contains simple sugars and fats (cream) which is easily absorbed .
Lastly the reason why your ALT went up might be lipitor and the wine (if taken on Daily basis) .
Now according to guidelines if your alt is substantially high you would need to decrease the lipitor dose for time being till it resolves.
