What could cause my husband to have a triglyceride level of 370 at age 31? how can he control it (he's a vegetarian)?

Yes: He may need medication to do so if it is very high unrelated to meals. He will need an evaluation by his doctor to determine the etiology of his elevated triglyceride level.

Elevated Triglycerid: Can be related to poor dietary habits especially diets high in processed high glycemic index carbohydrates and sugar with low activity level or related to genetics. Healthy diet, exercise and triglyceride lowering medication may be indicated
