Hi,
Serum Triglycerides (Serum TG) is definitely high. It may be running in the family. IT is highly influenced by the diet that you take and the inactivity one has. The most common acquired causes of high triglycerides are obesity and physical inactivity. Unhealthy behaviour and the choice of food should be modified.
I suggest that you take a Diet plan from a Dietitian which is free for you. Click 'Ask A Dietitian' service on your Dashboard.
Keep monitoring the Serum TG once every 3 months.
Fish oils XXXXXXX in Omega 3 ( n-3) fatty acids reduce serum triglyceride levels. You should consume them at least twice a week.
If this is not controlled in 3 months I suggest you to go to a MD physician for fibric acid derivative class of medications. They really help.
All the best. Hope this is helpful.
