Borderline situation: Your cholesterol values are borderline but your triglyceride values are clearly abnormal and need attention first. You should cut down on your food and bring your weight down into the normal range. Your triglycerides will come down if you cut down on sugar, sugary drinks and sweets with excess of sugar.That will help reduce your weight and lower your abnormal blood fats. You may not need a statins
