The upper limit of normal high total cholesterol value should be 5.1mmol/L, so the total cholesterol at 5.72mmol/L belongs to a mild increase. For mildly elevated cholesterol, if accompanied by risk factors such as diabetes, coronary heart disease, cerebral infarction, etc., total cholesterol should be controlled at 4.5mmol/L. If not accompanied by risk factors, total cholesterol can be controlled within the normal range, so total cholesterol of 5.72mmol/L belongs to the mildly elevated. First of all, diet control, low salt, low fat, low sugar diet, diet control, appropriate exercise, and then review the total cholesterol. If it is lowered to within the normal range, continue to control the diet and exercise more. If it can not be controlled within the normal range, it is recommended to take oral statin lipid regulating drugs treatment.
