Abstract: Hyperlipidemia, a disorder characterized by elevated lipid levels in the bloodstream, is increasingly prevalent among adolescents due to poor dietary habits and lack of physical activity. This study explores the roles of triglycerides, low-density lipoprotein (LDL), and high-density lipoprotein (HDL) in the development and progression of hyperlipidemia in adolescents. A comprehensive literature review and clinical analysis were conducted to evaluate lipid class distinctions, pathogenesis, epidemiological trends, and treatment strategies. Findings reveal a strong association between adolescent lifestyle patterns and the early onset of lipid imbalances, which contribute to atherosclerosis and long-term cardiovascular risk. The research emphasizes early screening, behavioral interventions, and, where appropriate, pharmacologic therapy to mitigate long-term health consequences. These findings contribute to adolescent-focused public health strategies and clinical recommendations for managing lipid disorders. DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.51505/ijmshr.2026.10113 |
