Treatment and symptoms of Direct LDL cholesterol 146 mg/dL | Diet for high Direct LDL cholesterol level 146 mg/dL

High Direct LDL cholesterol level of 146 can cause a number of symptoms.

An abnormal direct LDL cholesterol level of 146 may contribute to plaque buildup in arteries, increasing cardiovascular risk.

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.
