Hi everyone, hopefully someone can chime in. I'm not a pro where it comes to reading cholesterol ratios, etc.
I used to suffer from low cholesterol. I think I'm ok now? Also, how are my ratios?
Here are my most recent labs:
Cholesterol: 142 mg/dl (<200)
HDL: 41 mg/dl (>40)
LDL: 89 mg/dl (<130)
VLDL: 12 mg/dl (<30)
Triglycerides: 59 mg/dl (<150)
Cholesterol/HDL Ratio: 3.5 (<5)
Should I try to bump up my HDL? Any suggestions based on my labs?
