Eating fatty fish or nuts to lower triglycerides
Part of Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This study tests if eating foods rich in omega-3 fats (like fish and nuts) can lower your triglycerides and improve cholesterol levels. It may help if you have moderately high triglycerides but no other serious health conditions.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study looks at how differences in insulin resistance may change how the liver makes triglycerides (a type of blood fat). It may help researchers understand why some people have higher triglycerides and how to target them better.
This study tests whether two types of omega-3s (EPA and DHA) help improve HDL (good cholesterol) and reduce blood clot risk in people with high triglycerides and low HDL cholesterol.
This trial tests a new medication, SHR-1918, to lower high triglyceride levels. It may be an option for people with moderately elevated triglycerides and controlled cholesterol.
This trial tests an investigational medication, MAR001, to see if it can lower high levels of fats in the blood (triglycerides and remnant cholesterol) linked to heart disease. If you have these conditions, this treatment might help reduce your risk.
This trial compares a new phospholipid omega-3 supplement with a regular omega-3 supplement to see which works better for people with mixed dyslipidemia (high cholesterol and triglycerides) and high inflammation markers. It may help lower your triglyceride levels and reduce heart-related risks.
This study tests whether a type of fish oil can help reduce plaque buildup in arteries, focusing on people with high triglycerides and extra belly fat.
