SG, any family history of heart disease? Yes, the lower the LDL, the better. However, since you are NOT on lipid lowering agents and you have those numbers with diet & exercise, you are doing fine. The folic acid being low is interesting. Avoid ETOH. Your HDL is higher than most guys (HDL > 40 for men is recommended). Higher HDL is cardioprotective. Continue a low fat, low cholesterol diet...if I have more info re: age, weight, ht, waist size, then I can give you the stats your want re: cardiovascular risk. Keep up the low cholesterol diet. Your trigs are great as well (fatty acids).
