LDL cholesterol of 4.94mmol/L is considered high. For normal people, LDL cholesterol should be less than 3.4mmol/L, with borderline values of 3.4~4.1mmol/L, while more than 4.1mmol/L is diagnosed as elevated LDL cholesterol.
LDL cholesterol mainly transports lipid components from the liver to the body’s bloodstream. Excessive LDL cholesterol damages blood vessels, causing narrowing or blockage of blood vessels and causing cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, such as coronary artery atherosclerosis, coronary heart disease, stroke, and other diseases.
Patients with LDL cholesterol of 4.94mmol/L should go to regular hospitals in time and be treated under doctor’s guidance.
