[QUOTE="HiredHand, post: 3845308, member: 2469"] An HDL of 40 is borderline low and LDL of 100 is borderline high. Ideally, you’d want an HDL of 60 or higher and an LDL well under 100. [URL='https://my.clevelandclinic.org/health/articles/11920-cholesterol-numbers-what-do-they-mean']Understanding Cholesterol Levels and Numbers[/URL] [ATTACH type="full" alt="38376909-6098-43F4-93BF-8329DD7B438B.jpeg"]297327[/ATTACH] The chart below shows normal cholesterol levels. Healthcare providers consider these numbers healthy for most people. If you have heart disease or many risk factors, your LDL target may be different. Your healthcare provider may want your LDL level to be below 70 mg/dL. So, it’s important to talk with your provider about your test results and what they mean for you. As you review your results, remember that you want your LDL to be low and your HDL to be high. Ideally, your HDL should be above 60. It’s the helpful cholesterol. An HDL above 60 offers you protection against heart disease. [/QUOTE]
