The body stores calories that it doesn’t use right away as triglycerides and they circulate in the body to produce energy for the muscles. Elevated triglyceride levels are a risk factor for atherosclerosis, this build-up of plaque may lead to narrowing of arteries and may lead to a heart attack, stroke, and peripheral artery disease. This test is usually advised for people with hypertension, heart diseases, obesity, sedentary lifestyle and for people with diabetes, kidney, liver or thyroid problems.
