Test Results
Total Cholesterol (mg/dl)
Total cholesterol level is high
High level of total cholesterol increases your risk of heart disease. However high total cholesterol level can be a result of high HDL (good) cholesterol. If your total cholesterol is high with optimal HDL (good) cholesterol and the total cholesterol to HDL ratio (Tchol:HDL ratio) is <4.5, you are unlikely to have high cholesterol risk.
High total cholesterol level with elevated Tchol:HDL ratio can result in buildup of cholesterol plaques in your blood vessels that can lead to narrowing of the blood vessels. This may result in stroke and heart attack if the blood vessels are significantly narrowed.
A cholesterol level higher than 200 mg/dl increases the risk progressively. A healthy diet, regular exercise, and medication may help reduce cholesterol level. We recommend that you:
- Reduce your intake of saturated fats. Foods high in saturated fats include animal fats, red meat, shellfish (e.g. lobster, prawns, crabs, oysters, squids), egg yolks, internal organs (e.g. liver, intestines), butter, cheese, and pastries. You may take, in moderation, poultry (without skin), fish, low fat milk and yogurt.
-Â Reduce intake of trans-fat: Avoid or minimise the consumption of deep-fried foods, commercially-made pastries and snacks, and foods cooked with hydrogenated vegetable oil. - Increase fibre intake: Eat more fruits, vegetables, whole grains and garlic.
- Do cardiovascular exercises (e.g. brisk walking, jogging, swimming, cycling). Aim for 150 to 300 mins of exercises per week (refer to https://www.healthhub.sg/sites/assets/Assets/Programs/pa-lit/pdfs/Singapore_Physical_Activity_Guidelines.pdf for further information).
- Try to keep to your recommended weight and have your cholesterol level tested every 3 to 6 months.
Medication will be necessary if dietary changes and exercises are ineffective in reducing the cholesterol level. Follow-up cardiac assessments to screen for heart diseases such as a treadmill ECG or stress echocardiogram are recommended especially if the cholesterol is persistently high.
LDL (mg/dl)
High LDL-cholesterol level
High levels of LDL (bad) cholesterol increase your risk of heart disease. High LDL cholesterol, especially if the total cholesterol to HDL ratio (Tchol:HDL ratio) is also elevated (>4.5), can result in buildup of cholesterol plaques in your blood vessels that can lead to narrowing of the blood vessels. This may result in stroke and heart attack if the blood vessels are significantly narrowed.
An LDL cholesterol level higher than 130 mg/dl increases the risk progressively. A healthy diet, regular exercise, and medication may help reduce cholesterol level. We recommend that you:
- Reduce your intake of saturated fats. Foods high in saturated fats include animal fats, red meat, shellfish (e.g. lobster, prawns, crabs, oysters, squids), egg yolks, internal organs (e.g. liver, intestines), butter, cheese, and pastries. You may take, in moderation, poultry (without skin), fish, low fat milk and yogurt.
- Reduce intake of trans-fat: Avoid or minimise the consumption of deep-fried foods, commercially-made pastries and snacks, and foods cooked with hydrogenated vegetable oil.
- Increase fibre intake: Eat more fruits, vegetables, whole grains and garlic.

Doctor’s Comments & Recommendations
Laboratory Test
Body mass index (BMI) is an estimate of body fat based on height and weight. Normal BMI for low cardiovascular risk is set at < 23. BMI does not measure body fat directly, but instead uses an equation to make an approximation. A high BMI may indicate that there is too much fat on the body. The higher a person’s BMI, the greater their chances of developing certain serious conditions, such as heart disease, high blood pressure, and diabetes. While BMI can be useful in screening children and adults for body weight problems, it does have its limits. BMI may overestimate the amount of body fat in athletes and other people with very muscular bodies.
If your BMI is high, and it is associated with increased body fat percentage and an increased waist circumference, we recommend that you make the following lifestyle changes:
- Be more active. Most people who have excess body fat percentage consume more calories or energy than they use. Without enough activity, your body stores the energy as fat. The simplest way to lose this access body fat content is to eat less unhealthy food and be more active. This can be as simple as choosing to use the stairs rather than escalators/ elevators. Start regular exercise. Aim for 150 to 300 mins of exercises per week (refer to https://www.healthhub.sg/sites/assets/Assets/Programs/pa-lit/pdfs/Singapore_Physical_Activity_Guidelines.pdf for further information). You can also consider home exercise videos to ensure that it is a sustainable routine even during rainy seasons. Doing core muscle toning such as squats and planking are also good ways to tone up the body and help burn excessive calories.
- Adjust your diet. A balanced diet can help you control the body fat percentage. Try to include: • At least 5 portions of fruits and non-starchy vegetables every day • Whole-grain and high-fiber foods • Healthier dairy or dairy alternatives e.g. choosing Cottage Cheese rather than Cheddar Cheese • 6 to 8 glasses of water per day • Beans/lentils, fish, meat, eggs, or other proteins • Cut out or minimise sugary drinks • Fewer foods that are high in fat, salt, refined carbohydrates and sugar e.g. confectionary, ice cream, chocolates, and sweets. For ease of planning your meal, you can consider the healthy plate concept, where 50% of each meal is vegetable based, 25-30% is lean protein such as lean meat, fish or tofu, and the last 20-25% is made up of complex carbohydrate like noodles, bread or rice. It is also important to reduce the portion of food that you consume each meal so that the overall consumption is less than before.
- Follow up with a dietitian to plan your meal and also working with a certified personal trainer can be considered.
- Medical treatment to assist with weight loss can be considered if the BMI is 30 and above.
