2024年1月24日 · Doctors recommend aiming for high levels of high-density lipoprotein (HDL), or “good” cholesterol. However, in some cases, a person may develop very high HDL cholestero levels that are not...

2024年11月7日 · Extremely high HDL cholesterol is a level above 100 mg/dL (2.5 mmol/L). Genes may be the cause of very high HDL cholesterol. HDL cholesterol levels are often lower in people who have metabolic syndrome. This is a group of conditions that includes obesity, increased blood pressure and high blood sugar levels.

HDL is known as the "good" cholesterol particle because it functions to clear cholesterol from the arteries and deliver it back to the liver. Higher HDL levels are associated with a lower risk of heart disease. HDL levels lower than 40 milligrams per deciliter (mg/dL) are considered worrisome, and levels higher than 60 mg/dL are considered ...

2017年8月25日 · According to the National Institutes of Health (NIH), the ideal level of LDL or "bad" cholesterol is anything less than 100 mg per dl (100 ccs of blood). But for so-called "good" cholesterol, the HDL, anything above 60 mg/dl is considered protective against heart disease.

HDL stands for high-density lipoprotein and is commonly called "good cholesterol" because of its role in attaching to and removing LDL (bad cholesterol) from the bloodsteam. An HDL level of 100 may be written on a lab report as 100 mg/dL, or milligrams per deciliter.

Studies suggest that an HDL level above 100 mg/dL may not provide additional cardiovascular benefits and could even be harmful. Recent research indicates that very high levels of HDL may be linked to inflammation or other underlying conditions such as diabetes or liver disease.
