Video Summary
Hypertriglyceridemia is a condition characterized by high levels of triglycerides in the blood. If individuals' serum triglyceride concentrations are above 150 mg/dL, they are considered hypertriglyceridemia. High levels of triglycerides in the blood are associated with a high risk of developing heart disease, stroke, and other health problems. There are many different causes of hypertriglyceridemia, including genetics, obesity, eating too much processed or unhealthy foods, not getting enough exercise, smoking cigarettes, and drinking alcohol.
