Treatment and symptoms of Direct LDL cholesterol 101 mg/dL | Diet for high Direct LDL cholesterol level 101 mg/dL

High Direct LDL cholesterol level of 101 can cause a number of symptoms.

An abnormal direct LDL cholesterol level of 101 may contribute to plaque buildup in arteries, increasing cardiovascular risk. At 101, this marker could reflect changes in lipid transport and metabolism, potentially leading to symptoms over time such as chest pain, fatigue, or shortness of breath if atherosclerosis develops. Monitoring LDL cholesterol is important for heart disease prevention and for making lifestyle or medication adjustments to maintain arterial health. There are different treatment strategies, but the first thing to do is change your diet right away.
