The institution of medium chain diet (MCT) and fish oil in addition to the liraglutide and SGLT2 and conventional insulin has rendered significant and a satisfactory triglyceride, and glucose level as well as weight reduction. We would like to illustrate a case of 35 years old lady with a different treatment modality apart from the current general approach in managing obesity and hypertriglyceridaemia. There was marked reduction in HbA1c, 12.1–9.2% within 2 months. This is accompanied with weight reduction of 6 kg within four months.
