Detailed Answer:
Hello!

Welcome and thank you for asking on HCM!

Regarding your concern, I would explain that your albumin plasma levels are within the normal ranges.

While the triglycerides plasma levels are slightly elevated, but they could be considered borderline.

Coming to this point, I would just recommend reduce fatty food and sweets and take more food reach in omega 3 fatty acids like fish, fish oil, olive oil, walnuts, flax-seed, etc.. This will help lower your triglyceride level.

Hope you will find this answer helpful!

Kind regards,

Dr. Iliri
