1 Total Cholesterol/HDL: this ratio is determined when you divide total cholesterol into the HDL cholesterol in the body. 2  For instance, if an individual has total cholesterol of 240 mg/dl and HDL cholesterol of 30 mg/dl, then the Total/HDL ratio gives 8:1. 3  The ideal ratio for the body should be 3.5:1 or below.
Things to Pay Attention to with Cholesterol Values: HDL (the higher the better). Triglycerides (the lower the better, and not just below 150) Small dense LDL (the lower the better, correlates with TG) Total cholesterol to HDL ratio (the lower the better) If you like epidemiologic data, total levels close to 200-240 may be ideal; Cholesterol values are mostly smoke in mirrors.
