A groundbreaking study reveals that neurons can burn fat, challenging the long-held belief that the brain relies solely on glucose for fuel.

While glucose, or sugar, is a well-known fuel for the brain, Weill Cornell Medicine researchers have demonstrated that ...

Brisk walking can increase "good" HDL cholesterol and potentially lower "bad" LDL cholesterol. Learn how much (and how fast) ...

Takeaways FCS is a rare genetic disorder preventing the normal breakdown of triglycerides. It’s caused by a mutation in genes related to the lipoprotein lipase (LpL) enzyme.

After six months, triglyceride levels reduced by 42.5% in those taking Tryngolza (80 milligrams) compared with the placebo group. After 12 months of treatment, the reduction increased to 57%.

A MedUni Vienna study has identified a new approach to the drug treatment of metabolic liver diseases. In an experimental study, pharmacological inhibition of an enzyme that plays a central role ...

Participants with fasting triglycerides between 150-499 mg/dL and either LDL-cholesterol greater than 70 mg/dL or non-HDL-cholesterol greater 100 mg/dL were randomly assigned in a 3:1 ratio to ...

Lysosomal acid lipase deficiency (LALD) is a rare genetic condition that causes problems with lipid (fat) metabolism. While it’s unclear exactly how rare the condition is, it may affect 1 in ...
