Description:

LDL, or low density lipoprotein, is commonly referred to as the "bad cholesterol". The goal level for LDL depends on your number of risk factors for heart disease, or if you alreay have coronary disease. Drs. Spencer King, and Nanette Wenger discuss the treatment of LDL.

My family has all of the risk factors for heart attack. We all monitor our LDL levels yearly. Bad cholestorol must be lower if you have any diabetes or any suggestion of heart disease. Mine is 100 but my doctor wants it to be lower.
