hello rima,
normal triglyceride level is Less than 150 mg/dL.cholesterol level should be below 200.so you are in borderline .you cn reduce them by regular excercise and diet modification. avoid saturated fat like ghee, palm oin,vanaspati. take sunflower oil.take food 2 hr before sleep in night.take lot of fruits and green leafy veg and whole grain.avoid stress and take adequate sleep.pranayam and yoga are also helpful.
hope this information is helpful. take care.
