Triglycerides account for about 95 of our
dietary fats. Both vegetable and animal fat,
contain triglycerides. Once the food is digested,
triglycerides begin to circulate in the
bloodstream being used for energy by the body
cells. Any leftovers will be stored in the liver
as fat to fuel the body in between meals. If we
eat more food than we can burn, the calories are
being turned into triglycerides. High levels of
blood triglycerides are linked to several serious
health problems, including heart disease.
Elevated triglyceride levels are also associated
with a metabolic syndrome leading to increased
risk of diabetes, heart attack and stroke.
