Hi Honey915,   Let me convert your numbers to mg/dl so I can give you some feedback.   LDL = 2.18 mmol/liter = 85.02 mg/dl HDL = 2.06 mmol/liter = 80.34 mg/dl   From the numbers you've given, your LDL appears to be great.  You want to be less than 130 mg/dl.  Also, your HDL is excellent.  HDL should be greater than 40 and ideally greater than 60.   If you share your triglyceride level, I'll give you feedback.  Generally, you want your total cholesterol to be less than 5.2 mmol/liter or 200 mg/dl.  So, from this perspective your numbers appear to be good.  However, if you other risk factors for heart disease, your MD may want your numbers to be lower.  It's best to consult with your MD to determine the appropriate goal for you.   All the best,   Lisa Nelson, RD, LN Diet to Lower Cholesterol Naturally
