-
Reduced supply of blood in heart
-
Blood vessel blockage in brain

Swelling of pancreas or liver
Very high levels of cholesterol can even lead to severe chest pain, stroke, pancreatic disorder or heart attack. Thus, it is best to start hyperlipidemia treatment from the initial stage itself. Hyperlipidemia basically consists of triglyceride and cholesterol. Though their causes and cures vary at granular level, they broadly have the same symptoms. There are several forms of triglyceride medication which includes natural or herbal traditional Chinese medicines or western treatments. However, it is best to opt for natural medication as compared to other forms of medicines due to its effectiveness and lasting effects on human body.
