A high triglyceride level in the blood increases a risk of heart attack or pancreatic disease

What can cause high triglycerides??

Lack of exercise Being overweight Smoking Skipping meals and then eating large

quantities Excessive intake of alcohol, sugar,

starch, calories, saturated and trans fats

2 fatty acids and a glycerol
