Why is Triglycerides important?

Triglycerides are the primary form of stored fat and reflect carbohydrate metabolism and insulin sensitivity. In functional medicine, triglycerides are one of the most responsive biomarkers to dietary changes. Elevated triglycerides often indicate insulin resistance, metabolic syndrome, and increased cardiovascular risk. The triglyceride-to-HDL ratio is an excellent predictor of insulin sensitivity and particle size. High triglycerides contribute to small, dense LDL particles and reduced HDL function.

What are the symptoms of abnormal Triglycerides levels?

High triglycerides often asymptomatic but may be associated with fatigue after meals, difficulty losing weight, abdominal weight gain.

Basophils

Basophil percentage reflects allergic response mechanisms and immune system reactivity. Optimal levels support appropriate allergic responses without excessive inflammatory activation.

Nitrite

Urinary nitrites specifically detect nitrate-reducing bacteria, helping confirm bacterial UTIs and guide treatment decisions.
