LDL/HDL Ratio
The LDL/HDL Ratio is a calculated value that compares the levels of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol to high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol in the blood. LDL is often referred to as “bad” cholesterol because high levels can lead to plaque buildup in the arteries, while HDL is known as “good” cholesterol because it helps remove excess cholesterol from the bloodstream. A higher LDL/HDL ratio is associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular disease. This ratio is used to evaluate overall heart health and guide treatment decisions to reduce the risk of heart disease.
