Controlling Triglycerides
Dear Doctors,
Could you please suggest me on controlling Triglycerides? Just got tested self to see the levels.
As per my today's blood report, Triglycerides:278 mg/dL (ref. Level <150), cholesterol: 184 (ref. Level<200), VLDL Cholesterol: 55 (ref. Level<30). My LFT, KFT, Thyroid is normal as per report. My ECG is also normal (got tested self a week before).
Here, only Triglycerides is High.
I am 6feet tall, 78 Kg, 3-4 days walking/per week. I do consume only beer(alcohol) in a week/fortnight.
Can I control my Triglycerides level without medicine (by following lifestyle changes) or medicine is required?
I would be thankful to your kind suggestions.
Regards
