A member asked:

My hdl is 81 my ldl is 163 my triglycerides are 107.... am i at a high risk? what is the best way to lower this?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

High hdl: I don't think you're at high risk despite the elevated LDL as a high HDL is very protective. Do you have a family history of cardiovascular disease? , however you should follow a low saturated fat diet, avoid smoking, get exercise and you could take a statin to lower the ldl. Your md is the best person to advise you.
