Cholesterol

One should try to lower LDL cholesterol and raising HDL cholesterol to achieve a LDL HDL ratio below 3 OR the goal should be to keep the HDL/LDL ratio above 0.3, with the ideal HDL/LDL ratio being above 0.4.
Note:Recent Heart Foundation recommendation is that irrespective of the ratio, one should try to reduce the LDL cholesterol.

Cholesterol Level
In adults, a blood cholesterol level below 200 mg/dl is considered to be desirable.
Desirable: Less than 200 mg/dL or 5.17 mmol/L
Borderline high risk: 200-239 mg/dL or 5.17-6.2 mmol/L
High risk: 240 mg/dL or 6.2 mmol/L and over

LDL Cholesterol Level

Less value of LDL cholesterol is better.
Desirable Levels of LDL cholesterol: Less than 130 mg/dL or 3.35 mmol/L
Borderline high risk of LDL cholesterol: 130-158 mg/dL or 3.35-4.0 mmol/L
High risk of LDL cholesterol: 160 mg/dL or 4.15 mmol/L and over

HDL Cholesterol Level

High value of HDL cholesterol is better.
Desirable Levels of HDL cholesterol: more than 40 mg/dL or 1.04 mmol/L.

Normal Cholesterol Level: Total cholesterol less than 200 mg/dL and HDL-cholesterol (good cholesterol) 40 mg/dL or greater.

Get Your Lipoprotein Profile: Total cholesterol 240 mg/dL and above, regardless of HDL-cholesterol level
Get Your Lipoprotein Profile: Total cholesterol less than 200 mg/dL and HDL cholesterol (good cholesterol) less than 40 mg/dL.

See for other risk factors: Total cholesterol between 200 to 239 mg/dL and HDL-cholesterol (good cholesterol) 40 mg/dL or greater.
