[QUOTE="Bluetit1802, post: 1808657, member: 94045"] You can work out your correct LDL. The total is the total of the HDL + LDL + 46% of trigs. (in the UK) I am no mathematician, but I make that 4.72. So it seems the calculator is correct. Either there is a misprint somewhere on your results, or maybe it is because LDL is usually estimated rather than measured. As for eating eggs, reducing the amount is highly unlikely to affect your cholesterol. That myth was debunked some time ago. Our livers make our cholesterol according to what we need at the time. If we eat some dietary cholesterol, our livers just make less because we need less. However, eating 10 a day may be said by some to be overdoing it a bit! [/QUOTE]
