HDL levels of 60 or more help to lower your risk for heart disease.

HDL (good) cholesterol goals are different for men and women.

The higher the HDL level, the lower the risk of heart disease.

HDL actually works to clear cholesterol from the blood.

In general, people with high HDL are at lower risk for heart disease.

HDL below 40 increases your risk of heart problems.

Chief among these is high density lipoprotein, or HDL.

HDL (high density lipoprotein) cholesterol is known as good cholesterol.

However, high density lipoprotein (HDL, good) cholesterol did not increase.

His high density lipoprotein (HDL) was normal at 49.

It might also raise "good" high density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol.

The type which has more protein to lipid is called a high density lipoprotein or HDL.

Like other statins, atorvastatin also reduces blood levels of triglycerides and slightly increases levels of High density lipoprotein.

On the contrary, high density lipoprotein (HDL), sometimes referred to as "good cholesterol," seems to protect against diseases of the blood vessels and heart disease.

Stephen C. Harvey (born 1940) is a structural biologist with research interest in nucleic acids, the ribosome, virus structure and high density lipoprotein.

It lowers the heart rate and blood pressure, increases the high density lipoprotein in the blood and decreases the low density lipoprotein.

High density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL)- which transports cholesterol from the body back to the liver for excretion.

The encoded protein transfers phospholipids from triglyceride-rich lipoproteins to high density lipoprotein (HDL).

Even staining in this zone is due to alpha-1 lipoprotein (High density lipoprotein - HDL).

Apolipoprotein L (Apo L) belongs to the high density lipoprotein family that plays a central role in cholesterol transport.

Apolipoprotein A-I is the major protein component of high density lipoprotein (HDL) in plasma.

This gene encodes apolipoprotein (apo-) A-II, which is the second most abundant protein of the high density lipoprotein particles.

Apolipoprotein D (Apo-D) is a component of high density lipoprotein that has no marked similarity to other apolipoprotein sequences.

Apolipoprotein A2 is an apolipoprotein found in high density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol in plasma.

It will also pay for blood tests every five years to detect cardiovascular disease in people with no apparent symptoms, including analysis of total cholesterol, high density lipoprotein and triglycerides.

Alcohol helps raise the levels of high density lipoprotein or H.D.L. cholesterol and lowers plasma fibrinogen levels, which contribute to blood clotting.

Known side effects include harmful changes in cholesterol levels (increased Low density lipoprotein and decreased High density lipoprotein), acne, high blood pressure, liver damage.

In 1985, both drugs were also reported to increase serum levels of high density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol, total cholesterol, and apolipoproteins A and B.

Low serum concentration of functioning high density lipoprotein (HDL "protective if large and high enough" particles), i.e., "lipoprotein subclass analysis"

However, the ratio of total to high density lipoprotein cholesterol is considered a better indicator and some saturated fats (lauric acid and stearic acid) improve the ratio.

HDL, an acronym for 'high density lipoprotein' is sometimes called 'good cholesterol' because people with high levels of HDL cholesterol have less atherosclerosis.

The study focused on high-density lipoprotein, which carries cholesterol in the blood.

Weight loss raises the high-density lipoprotein levels but not necessarily during dieting.

The other type, high-density lipoprotein, carries cholesterol away from vessels and is believed to protect against heart disease.

At the same time, levels of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, which helps reduce fatty deposits, increased 37 percent.

Known as the good cholesterol, it is the common designation for high-density lipoprotein cholesterol.

High-density lipoprotein cholesterol, on the other hand, is thought to remove cholesterol from the arteries.

High-density lipoprotein transfers cholesterol from various parts of the body to the liver, where it is excreted.

Hypoalphalipoproteinemia is a high-density lipoprotein deficiency, inherited in an autosomal dominant manner.

Less than 20% is associated with high-density lipoprotein HDL.

Total blood cholesterol and triglyceride levels drop, but there is an increase in the protective high-density lipoprotein cholesterol.

Previous research found that moderate alcohol consumption increased levels of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, the so-called good cholesterol.

Later work from a retrospective study suggested that sulphonylurea therapy may reduce levels of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (Kennedy et al, 1978).

Effects of chromium supplementation on serum high-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels in men taking beta-blockers.

Serum high-density lipoprotein is increasingly elevated as the chain-length of triglyceride decreases.

Other apolipoproteins form high-density lipoprotein ("good cholesterol") particles.

Mutations in this gene have been associated with Tangier disease and familial high-density lipoprotein deficiency.

They also noted a significant decrease in high-density lipoprotein, the good type of cholesterol that carries plaque away from blood vessels and reduces cardiovascular disease.

Have low levels of "good" cholesterol (high-density lipoprotein, or HDL).

High-density lipoprotein (HDL) blood level is usually low.

But its effects on "good" high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol levels are less clear.

Also, a 39% decrease in high-density lipoprotein cholesterol was noted in the steroid-using weight lifters.

But they lower the high-density lipoprotein form of cholesterol, which helps clear the arteries, along with the artery-damaging low-density lipoproteins.

Moderate amounts of alcohol are believed to protect against cardiovascular disease in part by increasing levels of high-density lipoprotein, also known as the good cholesterol.

HDL (high-density lipoprotein) is sometimes called "good" cholesterol, because it helps move cholesterol out of your body.

High-density lipoprotein (HDL), the "good" type of cholesterol, is included in this fraction.
