When elevated triglyceride levels are detected, it is important for patients to also have their postprandial blood sugar, fasting and postprandial insulin, total cholesterol, LDL (bad cholesterol), HDL (good cholesterol), and uric acid levels checked. Particularly if fasting and postprandial insulin levels are high, LDL is high, and HDL is low, this situation can increase an individual's future risk of developing cardiovascular disease, hypertension, and diabetes. Furthermore, failure to bring these values within ideal ranges also elevates the risk of stroke. Monitoring these parameters is crucial for a comprehensive assessment and risk management.
