Answer:
That's a good question, as we usually are focused on cholesterol levels that are too
high. Our cells and body depend upon cholesterol for healthy functioning. There are
genetic, metabolic and dietary factors that all contribute to our cholesterol levels.
We shoot for low numbers in both total cholesterol and LDL cholesterol. For HDL levels, a higher number is better than a low number. The optimal targeted ranges depend upon individual risk factors and any ongoing heart disease. There is no absolute level that is considered "too low".
