[QUOTE="bulkbiker, post: 2455001, member: 219467"] Last time measured my total cholesterol was 7.8 and LDL "calculated" (it's rarely measured in the UK) at 5.65. In the words of Catherine Tate "Am I bovvered?" ... well not really because my Trig/HDL level (considered a far better indicator of the possibility of heart problems is at 0.588 (Trigs at 1 and HDL at 1.7) and anything under 0.87 is considered excellent. As I had water fasted for 12-14 hours before the blood was taken for the test I'm pretty confident I got a 'clean' reading. These are my readings over time [ATTACH=full]51881[/ATTACH] The high Trig/HDL in June 2020 was after 7 day fast so not representative. [/QUOTE]
