is 205 cholesterol bad?

QUESTION: My lipid profile showed cholesterol level of 205; is it bad?


ANSWER: Hi,

According to your lipid profile reading, your cholesterol is slightly higher than 205. To judge better, I need to know your HDL, LDL and triglycerides levels.

Such data will help understand why your cholesterol (I hope it is total cholesterol) is 205: is it because of high HDL or high LDL levels?

In either cases, I don't think it is worrisome problem, however, you should pay attention to your diet, physical activity and your lifestyle habits in order to prevent lipid profile disorders.

All the best!
