thanks for choosing health care magic.this is problem of today's fast life having too much of stress and less of physical activity.Triglycerides are type of fat molecule in the body and there higher level is not acceptable.We have different type of lipids in our body and triglycerides are among them.Higher level means you have more fat in your body,you need to take care about this limit fat intake in your diet,start regular physical activity minimum 150 minutes/week.With low or now physical activity,stress and poor eating habits increase risk of problems like hypertension,heart problems etc.so wake up.
