I feel like a retard for asking this but what is meant by Lipid Profile?

Can someone please explain--

as far as i klnow it is cholesterol (sp) levels and blood cell count......possibly more.

 

[Bozzman]

Lipid profile is the breakdown in specific values of your cholesterol
which is:

total cholesterol

Triglycerides bad
LDL =low density lipids bad
HDL=high density lipids good

you may have a cholesterol of 220 but if your HDL is 150 and your LDl is low, it may not be so bad.

Right on Bozz......and legacy, never feel like a retard for asking a legitimate question.....I'm sure there's a lot of people that have questions but are afraid to ask because they don't want to get flamed.....

Bozz is correct. The most important measurement, though, is the LDL to HDL ratio. You want this number to be below 3.

Never feel like a retard unless you do not use the search option. Learn as much as you can then post your question. No one will think you are a "retard" if you have a solid question. Most get flamed for asking questions like- I have heard that juice causes roid rage and that you should not take it. This will piss off quite a few bros (not due to roid rage - LOL) but the lack of knowledge in the post.

Use some common sense and these guys will help.

No flame here but if you want to know what (blank) is -say something general like a lipid profile. Dude, all you have to do is go into google and enter it into the search engine and you will get basline information.
There is no need to ask "what is (blank)"? After you read about it and have questions about it then that is the time to post.

Sorry, I don't agree with you there (I do, agree with you though to never feel like a retard for asking a question others think is stupid).
I have been hanging around here for almost 4-5 yrs the 1st 2-3 yrs were great, it was addictive. I could sit from daylight to dark to daylight reading and posting until I would finally tell myself its time to go to bed. The last 1-2 yrs it has gone down hill mostly because of some members ignorant replys.

No matter if you use the search and read every single thing you possibly can, you will still have some people who say: use the search, or post a link for the search because they think your question is stupid, blatantly obvious or you were just to lazy to research it on your own.

My point, just ignore the negitive comments if you get any.

If thats the case then none of us on this board or any other board really need to post anything because the internet has so much information on it eventually if you searched long enough you would find what you are looking for.
