What High Triglycerides Do to Your Heart
Most people who get a blood report back focus on the LDL number and leave it at that. But triglycerides, the other fat in your blood, often climb quietly for years without being flagged as a problem, especially when the LDL looks acceptable.
High triglycerides thicken the blood's movement through smaller coronary vessels and often appear alongside low HDL, a combination that raises cardiac risk more than either reading does alone. As a Cardiologist In Bhosari, Dr. Prashant Shinde reads lipid panels in context of each other, not in isolation, looking at ratios and patterns rather than single numbers.
Shwaas Cardiac Clinic is in Bhosari, near the MIDC industrial stretch. If your last blood report had a triglyceride reading you weren't sure about, calling to ask what it means for your heart is a good place to start.
