Al-Marsad newspaper: The family doctor, Dr. Saud Al-Shehri, revealed the origin of triglycerides, the reasons for their increase and the stage of danger.
Al-Shehri said, in a video he posted on his Twitter account: “Triglycerides come from if we eat too much and increase calories, especially sugars and starches, which the body converts into a storage form and calls them triglycerides”.
He added, “Triglyceride numbers from 100 to less than 100 are very excellent and ideal, and 149 is still normal, and if it reaches 199, the danger stage.”
Regarding the causes of high triglycerides, the GP said: “Family history, excessive calories, especially sugary and fatty foods, obesity, thyroid dysfunction, lack of control over diabetes, metabolic syndrome, and some medications such as birth control pills and stimulants that have side effects that can increase fat.” Triglycerides and some liver and kidney diseases cause triglycerides to rise.
As for the treatment of triglycerides, he mentioned, “If your doctor prescribes medications you must use and lifestyle,” revealing the truth about the misconception that black seed raises triglycerides, saying, “Misinformation, black seed black lowers the hormone homocysteine, which lowers triglycerides.”
And he continued: “Use the medicine if your doctor gives it to you, your diet, walking, reducing fat and sugar, and fish helps lower triglycerides”, recommending people who have risk factors for heart disease, to do a visit to make sure aged between 20 and 35 years.
