My wife is a very fit person who runs 10 kilometers every day and eats
a low fat diet. So she was surprised that here cholesteral level is
high. When I looked a the details, she has low LDL or bad
cholesterol, low Triglycerides, but a very high level of HDL or the
good cholesterol. Here doctors tell her she has a health problem and
she is giving up eating salmon.
From what I read having high HDL is good for you and I believe she is
very healthy and shouldnt change. I couldn't find anything on the net
to support my view that her high HDL levels is very healthy.
Does anyone know the answer to this and is there anything on the net
that supports high levels fo HDL are health even if it increases your
overall cholesteral levels?
If her *total cholesterol* is just borderline high, that is not a
problem as long as her LDL, HDL and TG are in the good range.
