Sometimes, consumption of omega-3 fatty fish doesn't work well enough, but fortunately, fish oil supplements are available over the counter. They're known to reduce triglycerides by about 25 to 50 percent. Try to choose fish oil made up of small, oily fish, such as herring and sardines.
Niacin of vitamin B3 is also a good triglyceride fighter. Although some people complain of temporary flushing with niacin, it may reduce triglycerides by 25 to 50 percent.
