Treatment and symptoms of HDL cholesterol 48 mg/dL | Diet for normal HDL cholesterol level 48 mg/dL

Normal HDL cholesterol level of 48 can cause a number of symptoms.

An abnormal HDL cholesterol level of 48 may affect how efficiently your body removes excess cholesterol from arteries. With an HDL value of 48, the body's ability to reduce plaque buildup and protect against heart disease could be compromised. HDL is often termed "good cholesterol" because it helps carry cholesterol back to the liver for excretion. Abnormal HDL levels may increase cardiovascular risk, and lifestyle changes or medications may be necessary to optimize lipid balance. While treatment methods are numerous, your diet should be the first thing to address.

Ideal levels of HDL cholesterol in the blood are approximately 40 - 60 mg/dL (Men)
