How to lower my cholesterol and triglycerides in two months?

Answered by Apollo Doctors

I am 25 years old and not doing heavy work, just office work. Sometimes I get pain in my left chest when I feel afraid or panic. During the pain, I do not have sweating or breathing problems. May I know why this happens? Is it due to cholesterol or something else?

Answered by Apollo Doctors

I am a 34 year old, non smoker, non alcoholic person. My current triglyceride level is 367 mg/dL. My doctor has advised me to take Tonact TG. I want to know if Tonact TG can increase blood sugar levels. Please advise. Thank you.
