A doctor has provided 1 answer

Diet and exercise: Worrying would not help. Your triglycerides are higher than desirable. If you are even slightly overweight, lose weight (easier said than done) reduce you intake of carbohydrates and saturated fats, And Exercise. Wish you good health! - Have a diet rich in fresh vegetables, fruits, whole grains, milk and milk products, nuts, beans, legumes, lentils and small amounts of lean meats. Avoid saturated fats. Drink enough water daily, so that your urine is mostly colorless. Exercise at least 150 minutes/week and increase the intensity of exercise gradually. Do not use tobacco, alcohol, weed or street drugs in any form. Practice safe sex, if you have sex.
