The triglyceride level test is used to determine how much triglycerides are present in your blood. Triglycerides, or lipids, are a form of fat found in the blood. Your doctor can use the findings of this test to estimate your risk of getting heart disease. A triacylglycerol test is another name for this test. These triglycerides circulate in your bloodstream to offer energy to your muscles. After you eat, more triglycerides enter your bloodstream. Your triglyceride level may be high if you consume more calories than your body requires. VLDLs (very low-density lipoproteins) transport triglycerides through the bloodstream. VLDL, like low-density lipoprotein (LDL) and high-density lipoprotein (HDL), is a kind of lipoprotein (HDL). If you and your doctor are discussing measures to lower your triglyceride level, VLDL readings can be useful information to know.

AN OVERVIEW
About Triglyceride Test
Why is the Triglyceride Test done?
A triglyceride level test is done to estimate your risk of heart disease. It aids in determining the amount of LDL cholesterol in your blood. It can tell you if your pancreas is inflamed and if you’re in danger of developing atherosclerosis. When fat builds up inside your arteries, it is known as atherosclerosis. It can put you at risk for a heart attack or stroke. A lipid profile should be performed every five years as part of your normal medical exam. Your lipid profile examines your levels of cholesterol, HDL, LDL, and triglycerides.
What does the Triglyceride Test measure?
The level of triglycerides in your blood is measured by a triglycerides test. In your body, triglycerides are a form of fat. Extra calories are converted to triglycerides if you consume more calories than you require. Your fat cells store these triglycerides for later use. Triglycerides are released into the bloodstream when your body needs energy. They give fuel for your muscles to work. You may have high triglyceride levels in your blood if you consume more calories than you expend, especially calories from carbohydrates and fats. High triglycerides can increase your chances of having a heart attack or stroke.

THINGS TO KNOW AFTER GETTING TESTED
Interpreting the Triglyceride Test results
| Triglyceride Count | Result | Conditon |
| 150 mg/dL | NORMAL | N/A |
| 150-199 mg/dL | Borderline High | Hypertriglyceridemia |
| 200-499 mg/dL | Very High | |
| More than 500 mg/dL | Extremely High | Risk for Pancreatitis |
The amount of time you fast varies from day to day. When you have a meal, your triglycerides rise substantially, reaching 5 to 10 times their fasting levels.
If your fasting triglyceride levels are higher than 1,000 mg/dL, you may develop pancreatitis. If your triglyceride levels are more than 1,000 mg/dL, you should begin therapy right once to decrease them. Your cholesterol may be high if your triglyceride levels are too high.
