7 Ways to Reduce Triglycerides Level

What are Triglycerides?

Triglycerides are fats (lipids) that account for 99% of the fat stored in the body. It is an ester formed from glycerol and three fatty acid groups. To tackle the problem, we should understand triglycerides' meaning. When we eat, our bodies use some calories for various activities. The rest of the calories are stored in the body in the form of triglycerides to utilize later if the body needs them. This fat is 'Triglycerides'. They can cause many lifestyle diseases.These are fats that typically accumulate around the gut (the “spare tire”) as well as around muscles (flabby arms). A normal triglyceride level should be less than 150 mg/dl of blood. They are closely associated with HDL (good cholesterol) and factors that affect in lowering cholesterol. It is not uncommon to see elevated triglyceride > 200 and low HDL ( than 40 for men, or less than 45 for women) occur together.
