Healthy lifestyle: Your HDL level is good. Depending on other risk factors, your target LDL may be lower, and your doctor can guide you on this. Living a healthy lifestyle with balanced diet, maintenance of normal weight adequate rest and regular exercise will help reduce your risk for heart disease.

Not too High: HDL is the protective, 'good' cholesterol. It is not "too high' at 67. It is just higher than the average in other humans. The more HDL the better for protection. It very well may be that you do not have the same Cholesterol gene as your father.
