[QUOTE="Bluetit1802, post: 2204572, member: 94045"] You are looking at the wrong ratio. The best ratio is one the NHS hasn't discovered as yet, but the real experts have. It is the triglycerides/HDL ratio, which ideally should be under 0.87 (in UK measurements. It is different in the USA. (Be aware that in the UK the trigs are measured using different units from the ones used in the USA so those figures won't bear much resemblance to the ones you have had here.) Just to refer back to a comment you made earlier. We all have cholesterol and lipids tested when we have our HbA1cs. It is part of the care plan. [/QUOTE]
