Cholesterol Management Tips
Total cholesterol below 200 mg/dL is considered desirable for most adults, reducing cardiovascular disease risk.
HDL (good cholesterol) acts as a scavenger, removing LDL from arteries. Levels above 60 mg/dL are protective.
LDL (bad cholesterol) builds up in artery walls. Keeping levels below 100 mg/dL is optimal for heart health.
Triglycerides are a type of fat in blood. Levels above 150 mg/dL may increase heart disease risk, especially with low HDL.
The Total/HDL ratio is a strong predictor of heart disease risk. A ratio below 3.5 is optimal, while above 5 indicates higher risk.
Non-HDL cholesterol (Total - HDL) represents all bad cholesterol particles. Target is less than 130 mg/dL for most people.
Regular exercise raises HDL levels and lowers triglycerides. Aim for 150 minutes of moderate activity per week.
Diet rich in soluble fiber, omega-3 fatty acids, and plant sterols can reduce LDL cholesterol by 10-20%.
Avoid trans fats and limit saturated fats to less than 7% of total calories to maintain healthy cholesterol levels.
Regular cholesterol screening is recommended every 4-6 years for adults, or more frequently if you have risk factors.
