Triglycerides

Core panel — run every month

What it indicates

The main form in which fat is transported and stored in the body.

Why a series helps

Triglycerides are strongly affected by the last meal and by alcohol, so one reading is hard to interpret and several are not.

What this page does not tell you

What a particular Triglycerides result means depends on you: your history, your medication, why the test was taken. Ziro does not interpret results for individuals and does not diagnose. If something in your results warrants a conversation, that conversation is with a doctor, and your results are downloadable so you can bring them.
