I learned today that the parade that day by WSU was the Juneteenth Parade. That the men and women so selflessly stopped to allow our funeral procession to move past has remained in our family's hearts and minds all these years.
Your cholesterol ratio is calculated by dividing your total cholesterol by your HDL number. For instance, if your total cholesterol is 180 and your HDL is 82, your cholesterol ratio is 2.2.
From these results various ratios can be calculated. The most common cholesterol ratios used to assess risk of heart disease are the Total Cholesterol/HDL ratio and the LDL/HDL ratio. The ratio of total cholesterol to HDL cholesterol is determined by dividing one's total cholesterol by their HDL. For instance, if an individual has an HDL cholesterol reading of 50 and a total cholesterol reading of 200 their total/HDL ratio would be 4.0.
