Find and Fix Causes: First, identify the problem. Possible causes include; genetic (such as familial combined hyperlipidemia) and non-genetic (insulin resistance, type II diabetes, thyroid abnormalities, chronic kidney disease, alcohol use) conditions. Next, optimize diet / exercise and fix contributing factors. Medications, such as statins, are often needed.
