Explaining HDL Cholesterol Ratio From HFL Solutions

Published by Dr. Sam Robbins at 7:53 am under Fitness

In reference to LDL, the HDL (High Density Lipoproteins) should be higher. When the HDL cholesterol is higher than the LDL you can reduce cholesterol. HDL moves through the bloodstream and removes bad cholesterol from blood vessels so it can be carried back to the liver and removed from the body. The HDL cholesterol ratio can be raised with the use of CholesLo.

You can predict someone’s risk of developing atherosclerosis with the number of total cholesterol to HDL cholesterol ratio. The number is acquired by dividing the total cholesterol value by the value of the HDL cholesterol. You will find that high ratios indicate higher risks of heart attacks where as low ratios indicate lower risk.

When you have high total cholesterol and when low HDL cholesterol increases the ratio it is undesirable. When high HDL cholesterol and low total cholesterol lowers the ratio it is said to be desirable.

About 4.5 is the average ratio. You want it to be better than average. Therefore, the best ratio would be 2 or 3, less than 4.

There is another ratio, the LDL/HDL ratio. This ratio is a cleaner ration than total cholesterol. HDL is a measure of good cholesterol, where as LDL is a measure of bad cholesterol. Total cholesterol is the sum of HDL and LDL. When you add up those values you have the total cholesterol measurement.

The LDL/HDL ratio is more accurate and pure than the total cholesterol HDL ratio. The LDL/HDL is often used because the total cholesterol is easier and less expensive to get then the LDL cholesterol level.

Obtaining an LDL of less than 80-100 is vital no matter what the HDL value is, especially if there are risk factors for coronary artery disease, tobacco use, hypertension and diabetes. It is important that a patient with coronary artery disease, history of bypass surgery or stents to have an LDL of less than 80.

In as little as one week you can reduce cholesterol by using CholesLo. This is endorsed by doctors and clinically proven. ClolesLo has numerous advantages such as it reduces both cholesterol and triglycerides, increases HDL cholesterol ratio and it will help repair the liver. By using CholesLo you can reduce your homocysteine levels. High levels of homocysteine are related to predicting heart disease.
