6. Розуміння ваших результатів
The GIMA Mission Cholesterol Meter provides readings for several lipid parameters:
- CHOL (Total Cholesterol): The total amount of cholesterol in your blood.
- HDL (High-Density Lipoprotein): Often called "good" cholesterol, it helps remove excess cholesterol from the body.
- TRIG (Triglycerides): A type of fat found in your blood. High levels can increase the risk of heart disease.
- LDL (Low-Density Lipoprotein): Often called "bad" cholesterol, high levels can lead to plaque buildup in arteries. This value is calculated by the meter.
- CHOL/HDL Ratio: A calculated ratio that can provide additional insight into cardiovascular risk.
Важливо: Reference ranges for lipid levels can vary based on age, gender, and individual health conditions. Always discuss your results with a healthcare professional for proper interpretation and guidance.
