Yes, these tests will help monitor heart health. Also add liver function and blood sugar tests if not already done.

My fasting test report shows the following: Total cholesterol: 265 mg/dl, Triglycerides: 256 mg/dl, HDL: 44.8 mg/dl, LDL: 171 mg/dl, VLDL: 171 mg/dl, Non HDL: 220 mg/dl. Could you please assist in interpreting these results? What could be the possible reasons for these values, and is this really risky?

Which of these is high in cholesterol? How much should be eaten daily? Cottage cheese (paneer), potato (alu), cauliflower (gobi), mushroom?

Answered by Apollo Doctors

Why are triglycerides high but cholesterol normal?
