What exactly to take if the LDL cholesterol is low depends on what is causing the low LDL cholesterol. If the patient has this low LDL cholesterol due to taking statins and the patient himself has coronary heart disease or diabetes, the statins can be continued without any adjustment of the dose used, and relatively speaking, the lower the LDL cholesterol, the greater the benefit for the patient. However, if the patient has low LDL cholesterol, which is indirectly triggered by malnutrition and cachexia state, attention should be paid to supplementation. It is recommended that the patient should have a high quality protein diet, which mainly includes silkworm pupae, sea cucumber, beef and mutton, mainly red food, and egg whites, which help to raise LDL cholesterol. In addition, further liver function tests should be performed to see if the patient is suffering from hypoalbuminemia, and if necessary, supplemental albumin is needed.
