Season 1 Episode 2: Triglycerides


Season 1 Episode 2


When you see elevated triglycerides on a lab report, what’s your first move? Diet talk? Lifestyle handout?

It’s time to pause — because triglycerides aren’t just about carbs and alcohol. They can be a clue to deeper issues: insulin resistance, hepatic strain, even pancreatitis risk.

In this episode of LipidCurious, we take a deep dive into:

  • What triglycerides actually are?
  • Why triglycerides go up — and when you should worry?
  • Whether they really cause atherosclerosis, or are just guilty by association

We’ll also walk through a 5-question framework you can use in clinic to make sense of elevated TGs, and what to prioritize when the number is >150 mg/dL.
