🧪 What Are Healthy Cholesterol Levels?
Understanding your cholesterol numbers is key to taking control of your heart health. Here’s a simple breakdown of the typical target ranges for a standard lipid profile test (measured in mmol/L):
✅ Total Cholesterol
-
Healthy range: Less than 5.2 mmol/L
🟡 LDL Cholesterol (Low-Density Lipoprotein)
Often called the “bad” cholesterol, since it can build up in arteries.
-
Optimal: Less than 2.6 mmol/L
-
Near optimal: 2.6 – 3.3 mmol/L
-
Borderline high: 3.4 – 4.1 mmol/L
-
High: 4.2 mmol/L and above
💪 HDL Cholesterol (High-Density Lipoprotein)
This is the “good” cholesterol – the higher, the better!
-
Low: Less than 1.0 mmol/L
-
Ideal: Above 1.2 mmol/L
🔬 Triglycerides
These fats in your blood also matter:
-
Normal: Less than 1.7 mmol/L
-
Borderline high: 1.7 – 2.2 mmol/L
-
High: 2.3 – 5.6 mmol/L
-
Very high: 5.7 mmol/L and up
📌 Note: These are general guidelines. Your optimal levels may vary based on age, lifestyle, and overall health. Always consult your healthcare provider for a full picture.
