A triglyceride test, part of a cholesterol panel, is a blood test that measures the levels of triglycerides in the blood. Triglyceride levels may be measured either when a person is fasting or not fasting.
Triglyceride levels in the blood increase after a person eats, therefore, many practitioners believe that a person should fast before taking a triglyceride test.
