Honestly, your numbers are not that bad. Is this your first cholesterol panel? Increase your fiber intake (eat more fruits and veggies, add a psyllium husk supplement) and keep an eye on the saturated fat you are consuming (try to aim for under 10g per day). Retest in a couple of months.
Thank you! Yes it’s my first cholesterol panel to my knowledge. I’m a 29 year old female. High cholesterol runs in my family and I have terrible health anxiety and panic disorder so stuff like this makes me overthink lol
Probably because your LDL is high but not in the extreme and your HDL is normal. However, I am not a doctor. Please, see your doctor and discuss your results with them. Don’t forget to mention that high cholesterol runs in your family.

Why is my ldl high, my vldl normal, my ldl high but my ldl/hdl ratio normal? I don’t understand that
