title: High lipemic serum: a case report.
abstract: Hypertriglyceridemia is the condition in which the triglyceride level in the blood is elevated. Triglycerides (TGs) are the major source of energy stored in the body. In this case a 66 years old gentleman has consumed pork with alcohol. A milky white serum was observed due to high triglyceride level. However, he had no other lipid disorders. The increased triglyceride level was purely of dietary origin last night. The subject was perfectly fine with lipid profile and other biochemical investigations performed one week later.
