Hi,
This blood test reveals that your triglycerides do not fall into a healthy range:
Normal — Less than 150 milligrams per deciliter (mg/dL), or less than 1.7 millimoles per liter (mmol/L)
Borderline high — 150 to 199 mg/dL (1.8 to 2.2 mmol/L)
High — 200 to 499 mg/dL (2.3 to 5.6 mmol)
Triglycerides are a type of fat found in your blood. High triglycerides are often a sign of other conditions that increase the risk of heart disease and stroke, including obesity and metabolic syndrome — a cluster of conditions that includes too much fat around the waist(apple obesity), high blood pressure, high triglycerides, high blood sugar and abnormal cholesterol levels.
Make a few lifestyle changes. Avoid sugary cereals, instant rice, bagels, pizza, pastries, pies, cookies, and cakes. Starchy foods include high-starch vegetables, such as potatoes. Instead, choose foods with 100% whole grains, long-grain rice instead of instant rice, and non-starchy vegetables, raw fruits and veggies, fiber-rich diet.
Avoid junk food. Do exercise regularly.
Apple Cider Vinegar and Honey are said to decreases the triglycerides and cholesterol levels and you will prevent the accumulation of cholesterol in your blood vessels.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
