Cholesterol levels more than 200 mg/ dL are considered to be dangerous. A normal cholesterol or blood lipid report comprises three components which are mostly considered to determine the overall cholesterol composition in the body: high density lipoprotein, low density lipoprotein and triglycerides.
The low density lipoprotein or LDL range is paid more attention than other parameters in a lipid profile test. The normal range of LDL is less than 100 mg/dL. LDL is also referred to as the bad cholesterol.
HDL and triglycerides should be 40mg/dL or higher and below 150 mg/dL, respectively.
Regular medical examination is one of the key reasons why several life threatening diseases progress easily.
