Will triglycerides be high if you don't fast?
Experts state that non-fasting triglycerides levels of more than 200 milligrams per deciliter (mg/dL) should be considered high. The body stores triglycerides in the adipose or fat tissues, but they also move through the bloodstream. Excess calories, especially starchy sugars, are stored as triglycerides.
