What is the normal choresterol level at the age of 40?

For a healthy adult at age 40, total cholesterol levels should ideally be below 200 mg/dL. Levels between 200-239 mg/dL are considered borderline high, while 240 mg/dL and above is high. Additionally, it’s important to monitor LDL (bad cholesterol) and HDL (good cholesterol) levels, with optimal LDL being below 100 mg/dL and HDL ideally above 60 mg/dL. Regular check-ups can help maintain healthy cholesterol levels.
