Can your good (hdl) cholesterol be too high?

ldl bad cholesterol is 103. hdl is 115. why is total cholesterol 231?

Total cholesterol is determined by a formula and doesn't correlate completely with each number

231 - (103+115) = 13, that result is about 20% of your triglycerides, so your Tri-Gs are about 65.

115 is very high for HDL, and possibly in error.

There must be an error in your test for HDL. Normally HDL range from 40-60. LDL should be at least less than 100.

Cholesterol IS CHOLESTEROL.

There is NO SUCH THING AS "GOOD" CHOLESTEROL

CHOLESTEROL IS ONLY ONE SUBSTANCE NOT TWO

HDL , LDL LIPOPROTEINS AND NEITHER ARE GOOD OR BAD

THEY ARE BOTH VERY VERY IMPORTANT

CHOLESTEROL DOES NOT CAUSE CORONARY HEART DISEASE
