Glossary Serum Triglyceride Levels

amount of fat in blood used for energy

Serum Triglyceride Levels refer to the amount of triglycerides present in the blood. Triglycerides are a type of fat (lipid) that the body uses for energy. High levels can increase the risk of heart disease and may be associated with conditions like obesity, diabetes, and metabolic syndrome. Monitoring these levels is important for assessing cardiovascular health.
