Q.
A. LDL and HDL are determined by Photometry method in a Pathological Laboratory.You are required to give a blood sample for this.
Full Blood profile consists of TC,HDL,TG and LDL.
Full Blood profile consists of TC,HDL,TG and LDL.
Ldl is 196 triglycerides 154 hdl 31 hdl ratio 8 ldl ratio 6.3 very low density lipoprotein 30.8 my age is 44?
Q.
A. LDL- High LDL level, corresponding to much higher rates for developing symptomatic cardiovascular disease events
Triglyceride- Slightly above normal.
HDL- Low HDL cholesterol, heightened risk for heart disease.
VLDL- slightly above normal.
Risk for cardiac disease is assessed by dividing the total cholesterol level by the HDL level. Target values are <5 for men and <4.4 for women.
Take statin drug in consultation with your doctor.
Also control your cholesterol level by diet and exercise. You may also take omega-3 fatty acid (fish oil).
Adopt DASH diet (Mediterranean diet). Eat a low-cholesterol, low-fat diet, which includes cottage cheese, fat-free milk, fish, vegetables, poultry, and egg whites. Use monounsaturated oils such as olive, peanut, and canola oils or polyunsaturated oils such as corn, safflower, soy, sunflower, cottonseed, and soybean oils. Avoid foods with excess fat in them such as meat (especially liver and fatty meat), egg yolks, whole milk, cream, butter, shortening, pastries, cakes, cookies, gravy, peanut butter, chocolate, olives, potato chips, coconut, cheese (other than cottage cheese), coconut oil, palm oil, and fried foods.

Do we need both HDL (High-density lipoprotein) and LDL (Low-density lipoprotein)?
Q. If so, then how do vegans exist?
A. The liver and the intestines both form lipoproteins such as HDL, LDL, IDL and VLDL. Levels of each are determined by multiple factors. For example, the fats that are carried by the lipoprotein particles come from food and from fat synthesized by the liver.
Eating foods high in cholesterol actually has little effect of serum cholesterol levels(1). The body has a sensitive feedback mechanism that tightly regulates the production of cholesterol (2). When dietary consumption of cholesterol increases, less is produced by the liver. High levels of insulin increase the synthesis of cholesterol by the liver and also by individual cells in the body.
Fats do have an effect on the levels of HDL, LDL and VLDL. Saturated fats strongly increase HDL and to a lesser estent, LDL. Polyunsaturated fats tend to lower both HDL and LDL. A higher refined carbohydrate intake can strongly increase the serum levels of triglycerides, which can also increase LDL. The liver produces primarily palmitic and palmitoeic acid from carbohydrates. Palmitic acid is also the predominant fatty acid in animal.
Since production of HDL, LDL and triglycerides is mediated by many factors, it is impossible to make many generalizations about the association of dietary fats and carbohydrates and serum cholesterol. Very low carbohydrate diets can result in a more favorable lipid profile than a low fat diet (3). Strict meat eaters can have a fairly low serum choleserol while vegans can have a higher serum cholesterol. People eating a paleolithic diet and a vegan diet can have similarities, in so much that both ways of eating discourage the consumption of vegetable seed oils, refined carbohydrates and favor eating whole foods.
