| | Triglycerides - Ask the Dietitian |
| | Triglycerides are really responsive to dietary changes and can come down rather quickly (1 - 3 months). | | | If you are exercising 3 to 5 times per week for at least 30 minutes, then you may want to talk to an exercise physiologist to tailor an exercise program for you. | | | Your body weight is in a healthy range as is your BMI (body mass index). |

| | Do Triglyceride Tests Really Help Predict Heart Disease? |
| | We just haven't been able to get our arms around triglyceride measurements, and that suggests to me that it is not really a good test." Rubins is chief of general internal medicine at the Minneapolis VA Medical Center. | | | Our study shows there is relatively little value in obtaining triglyceride levels to assess [heart disease] risk." He adds, however, that the study does not answer whether treating high triglyceride levels will reduce the incidence of heart disease. | | | Avins and colleague John M. Neuhaus, PhD, both from the University of California, San Francisco, analyzed data from three large studies looking at heart attack risk factors in healthy people. |

| | UM Milkshake Study Suggests Target Triglyceride Levels Should be Lowered |
| | The present study extends previous research by Dr. Miller’s group which showed that compared to lower levels, triglycerides above 100 mg/dL were associated with a 50 percent increased risk of heart attacks and death. | | | The study, published in the current issue of the Journal of Investigative Medicine, provides a potential rationale for advocating much lower fasting triglyceride levels than those currently considered desirable. | | | Miller says a combination of diet changes and exercise can reduce triglyceride levels by as much as 30 percent. |

| | Triglyceride - definition of Triglyceride in Encyclopedia |
| | In the human body, high levels of triglycerides in the bloodstream have been linked to atherosclerosis, and, by extension, to the risk of heart disease and stroke. | | | When these fail, fibrate drugs (and some statins) are registered for reducing triglyceride levels. | | | When the body requires fatty acids as an energy source, the hormone glucagon signals the breakdown of the triglycerides by hormone-sensitive lipase to release free fatty acids. |

| | When the needle is inserted to draw blood, some people feel moderate pain, while others feel only a prick or stinging sensation. | | | High triglyceride levels may be associated with a higher risk for heart disease and stroke. | | | This is especially true because people with high triglycerides often have other conditions, such as diabetes and obesity, that increase the likelihood of developing cardiovascular disease. |

| | Effect of drugs on triglyceride and HDL-C levels | | | Greater effects on triglyceride and HDL-C were seen in the type IIb (higher-triglyceride) patients. | | | Similarly, in the subgroup of patients with triglyceride levels of 500-1500 mg/dl (Group B), which would primarily be patients with type V hyperlipidemia, fenofibrate 100 mg TID decreased triglyceride and VLDL-C and increased HDL-C. However, LDL-C was also significantly increased in these patients. |

| | The body removes triglycerides as daily activities occur, which is desired since medical professionals are suggesting that increased levels of triglycerides contribute to coronary heart disease and high levels may lead to abdominal pain, pancreatitis, enlargement of liver and spleen, and skin ailments. | | | A triglyceride is basically another way of referring to fats and oils formed in human tissues, but also existing in various foods rich in carbohydrates (carbs), such as bread, sweets, or rice. | | | A range of 200 to 400 mb/dL is borderline and indicative of increased levels. |
