The Nature of Cholesterol

 

Cholesterol is a waxy, fat-like substance found in all cells of the body. Your body uses cholesterol to make hormones, vitamin D, and substances that help you digest foods. Your body makes all the cholesterol it needs. Too much cholesterol in the blood, or high blood cholesterol, can be serious. Cholesterol can build up on the walls of your arteries, creating plaque. Over time, plaque can cause narrowing of the arteries. This is called atherosclerosis, or hardening of the arteries. Atherosclerosis can impact your heart, brain and other parts of your body. People with high blood cholesterol have a greater chance of getting heart disease. High blood cholesterol on its own may not cause immediate symptoms, so many people are unaware that their cholesterol level is too high.  High cholesterol may also be a sign of another underlying condition. Screening for cholesterol level is a part general health surveillance. Below is a general description of cholesterol levels.  A licensed healthcare professional can provide you with in-depth information about your health.

 

Total Cholesterol Level

Desirable: Less than 200 mg/dL

Borderline high: 200-239 mg/dL 

High: 240 mg/dL or higher

 

LDL cholesterol 

Optimal: Less than 100 mg/dL

Borderline high 160-189 mg/dL

High 190 mg/dL or higher

 

HDL Cholesterol scavengers for excess cholesterol and provide anti-atherosclerotic function. Optimal values vary between 40 to 60 mg/dL. 

 

The Importance of Glucose Testing

Glucose tests measure the amount of sugar in your blood. Normally, glucose levels stay within narrow limits throughout the day. Levels increase after meals, and are usually lowest in the morning. High levels are a likely indication of metabolic dysfunction including possible diabetes. Elevated glucose levels that remain high over time can damage your eyes, kidneys, nerves, and blood vessels. Glucose levels are: 70 – 99 mg/dL normal 100 – 125 mg/dL pre-diabetes 126 and above diabetes Many factors can affect glucose levels. If yours are out of range, talk to a licensed healthcare professional about further testing.  Are you curious about your glucose or cholesterol levels? Let's talk.
