Lipid targets

SamJB · Nov 29, 2018

I've been Googling to try and find targets for lipid results, but can't seem to find anything consistent. Does anyone have a link (or can post here), the targets for:

Serum HDL
Serum Total Cholesterol / HDL ratio
Serum Triglycerides

Thank you for posting that link. I haven't seen it before. I have used my own lab report standards.

What the link doesn't provide are the ratios.

Total/HDL ratio under 5 mmol/l
Non HDL under 3.4 or 4 mmol/l
Trig/HDL under 0.87 mmol/l

One more question: my test results show "non HDL cholesterol level". What is that, LDL + Triglycerides?

Yes. Anything that is not HDL
